Try these settings. They are from performance bike.
I found a great improvment over the standard settings. The fornt did feel a cit harf so I backed off the pre load a bit.
Performance Bikes settings Rear Preload - Position 2 Rebound - ¼ of a turn out from full in Front Preload - 2nd groove showing Rebound - ¼ of a turn out from full in
standard suspension settings?
I'm in the USA, so the specs may differ, but I doubt it.
In that light, one correction:
Factory settings on rebound, both front & rear, is to go clockwise to full hard (hold on now!), then back counter-clockwise one full turn.
I'm eager to try out the Performance settings suggested however.
I got my VTR last October & am still sorting it out. It's not as stable in hard cornering as my old '99 Katana 600 was. It wants to fall to the inside of curves. Then I have steer out to correct for that.

It's about the road, not about the chrome.

Not silly at all. I know exactly where Gallant Fox Court is. My wife & I go to Uno's Chicago Grill very near there every once in a while for the best (IMHO) deepdish pizza.
