Does anyone know how much the fork sag should be,(with rider and without)

 

[martinc]

more or less an inch.(more for road,less for track)

an inch being the diff. between unweighted and weighted.

do you know the procedure to do it?

set up

Yes I know the procedure to set up sag, ride height,rebound and compresion damping,I raced for 8years on many different bikes. The R1 has the most fork travel of any bike I have set up,therefore it needs more sag( approx. 25% race and 30% for the street). The R1 stock has about 35mm of static sag without the rider. If I am to use 25mm of full sag with rider i will have to raise the forks up about 10mm in the triple clamp to keep the same angle of attack/ride height.
I just wanted to know if other R1 riders have set up there bike properly?

yes,it has more fork travel,but that doesnt mean the sag as to be greater.
