Question about suspension settings

[JRage]

i have been riding around on the suspension settings that were on there when i bought the bike. it feels good in the turns until i hit a bump and it kind of makes it feel unstable. i want to set up my suspension and seen other threads about it about it and was going to try the Shaun Higbee settings until someone said these settings are different for 08 and up. i have a 08 xb12r and was wonder what would be some good settings to start with?

i forgot to say im about 200 lbs

you can use his settings. What you will have to do is just see what the difference is for the front. Like on the 03-07s they have the lines out for front preload. I dont know if thats how it is on an 08. I know on an 09 its turns out, not lines out. So if it is anything like my 09. Just see what the settings are like with lines out and look in the manual to see what it is for turns out on the newer bikes. Hope that helps some, thats how i did it and love the way it is now.
