I agree chevaliernoir the spring is 2 stage and not progresive
With this set up the soft stage is around 35mm travel and taken up with rider sag.
I have only just fitted this setup and I take your point on variable rebound. This could be an issue at full lean on rough corners which could be unsettling with the potential to kick out.
Linear rate is definitely the better option. I am just trying this to gauge spring rate for my weight (100kg) as I keep reading that the R6 setup is a great improvement for fast road and occasional track but dedicated track needs a better shock. So reading between the lines I maybe thought a stiffer spring may make it a more suitable track option
Thank you for enlightening me to this potential situation, its much appreciated.
Ill go for a few more rides and gauge the feedback it gives in this situation.
