Best handling height for KW V1's

Hey all

I'm currently running kw v1's on my 197. When I first put them on back in January I had them very low.

Only 5 threads up on the front
And took the adjusters out on the back so it was as low as possible.

This was a stupid idea I know and it didn't handle very well, so I raised the front up by four threads yesterday and I can already notice a slight improvement in handling.

Just wondering what height other people have their v1's set to for optimum handling.
 
Technically the lower the better as your centre of gravity will be lower. It is said though that if you run some rake (Back higher than front) then you get better handling.
 
So in reality, you wont be able to run the perfect ride height as it'll probably lead to big time scrapage imo.
 
When I had my V3s put on they set them at lowest on the back with the adjusters installed and then matched the ride height on the front, sits nicely and handles insanely!
