- The pilot must be wearing all equipment. With
someone else to help to keep the motorcycle
balanced, the pilot assumes the driving position
(feet on footrests) and makes the shock absorber
sag several times to find the balance position.

The shock absorber's riding sag is the difference
between value R2 and R3.
R2 – R3 = Riding sag.
