As answered in "The Arms" it's 42/36

If I was you I'd experiment, but use that as the starting point. If you're always "on-it" you'll want to drop those a bit.

42/32.....that's a slightly odd combo. Are you sure it's not 42/36?

deffo 32 Wayne - - in tabular form, says 36 for the Gaytona but 32 for the S3. Often wondered if twas a typo, but then again, less weight on the front than the petticoated version ?

Negligable weight difference unless they're accounting for the rider's weight which would be less over the front on an S3.....which is entirely possible

That was my thinking .... - upright position vs clipons and gut on tank

wrong way round....us svelte riders can get by but the lardy brigade need to sit upright to rest their beards and bellies on the tank.
