Ohlins TTX shock got delayed, so I maybe looking to setup my stock suspension myself prior to the trackday.
Do you all recommend any video that teaches one how to do an initial setup of the suspension? The videos I watched are either cut short to make you buy into a tutorial or poorly explained.

Most track day providers have a local shop providing suspension setups for a reasonable price. I think our guy charges $70-$80
 
So many of those are sh*t. I went down this rabbit hole of incompatibility when trying to sort out clip-ons and controls last winter.

The Spider ones are nice, sized perfectly. If you use the R&G lock stop savers, the damper brackets will shorten the turning radius even further.

Probably better just to back off the clip-on angle slightly so you can go lock to lock.
I use the R&G stops savers, of cource AFTER i broke the originals. The amount of reduction of turn radius is not noticible even in town. On top of that they are made from some sort of pressed nylon, so i filed them a couple a millimeters on the left side so i can lock the forks.

And yes im the guy who droped the bike and the Rizoma mirror broke the magnesium front cowl. So i hate them to this day :) The cowling has tree holes in this spot for the bolts and cabels, so i very fragile.

Im concidering DB race deemon mirrors at least they are shorter and retract invards. But the price is insane even with low EU shipping.

Barends (CRG's are nice). Turn them upside down. Once you do that you'll never go back. Mounting anything on the fairing stays never works out.
