ZETA Sag Checker Tool Measure - 228678

Worked great. Easy to use without the need of a 2nd person

Very simple to use and allows you to do the complex task of setting the sag, (or checking it), on your bike by yourself instead of needing two people. Works as advertised.

I've made my own from a retractable badge holder, but this is nicer. There are three tricks to this. One is that you need to mark a radius from your swing arm pivot to your axle and then "draw" an arc to where that meets a fender or side cover. Make a small mark with a perm pen. That's where you'll clamp the cable after securing the larger piece to the axle. Two is you need to get the rear wheel in the air to measure the free sag. Third, is you need to know the rear suspension travel for that bike.You want set it up and "zero it" with the rear suspended. Put the bike back on the ground and then sit on it fully kitted up and upright and just barely touching the ground. Then carefully get off, and raise the bike back up. The distance between the brass marker and the base is the race sag. Roughly, that should be about 1/3 of your total rear suspension travel unless your bike specifies something else. Your bike specs should tell you the total travel. In my case the travel was 220mm and the target was around 75mm of sag. The mfg of my shock said to go a bit higher to 85ish, but you get the picture.

Every place I tried to mount this thing on the swingarm, the clamp was either too small or too big. In the end I had to find something to put in between the edge of the swingarm and the surface of the part to get it to clamp on. On the small end I was able to clamp it to some body work, which wasn’t hard but it was reaching the extent of the cable. On the front end I could mount it on the axle without issue but I had to grab onto the lower brace between the fork tubes because the cable length would not reach any higher.It does the job, with some fiddling. I’m trying some other ways to see if I can make it quicker/easier in the future. I’m using this on my Husqvarna Norden Expedition and really just want to be able to adjust between fully loaded for travel, 2 up, and stripped down for day rides or commuting. Yes, it’s being ridden on fire roads, jeep trails, and OHV roads, as well as streets and highways.

doesnt fit well on any of my bikes i had to figure out ways to make it mount on the bike. the slider thing doesnt always slide so you have to watch to make sure. it also falls off alot. for 40 bucks i think it should work better. a tape measure, duct tape and bailing wire works just as good, and much cheaper.

This tool is absolutely fantastic. It makes checking your sag by yourself super easy. The packaging has a ruler printed on it to make the process that much easier. I should have bought this months ago!

Easy to use, works as advertised, makes measuring sag a breeze.

A handy way for one person to measure sag. On my Suzuki DR650 this worked well to measure rear wheel travel, but I couldn't find a way to attach it to the lower portion of my forks to measure front wheel travel. Nothing to clamp onto there.

Great product to assist in single handing setting sag. I am always adjusting preload to suit the ride - this takes all of 30 seconds to install and to use. Would recommend!

そんなに頻繁に使うものではないが、コースのコンディションによってはイニシャルを変更する場合もある。なおかつ1人でもできるため大変重宝している。

I liked the idea of being able to check the sag by myself without help but the item does pose some challenges . The base would not stay connected to my axel & swingarm so I finally zip tied it in place.However I did finally get things working to my satisfaction & got the sag adjusted to my satisfaction.

DRZ400smのリアサスのサグ出しの為に購入。使い方はとても簡単で、先ずチェッカーを取り付けたらバイクをスタンドに載せないで金色のスライドピンを一番下まで下げる。その状態でライディング時のフル装備になった上で跨り、両足をステップに載せるなりして車体に体重を掛ける。この際に不必要な荷重は絶対に掛けないこと。跨ってフル装備の状態の自身の重さをバイクに荷重し終えたら静かにバイクから降りて、センタースタンドなりリフトアップジャッキなりでリアタイヤを浮かせて地面から離す。伸び切った状態になって金色のピンが移動しているので、その距離を計測するだけです。もしサグが目標値になっていなければ、あとはサスのプリロードを締め込むなり緩めるなりして同じ作業を繰り返すだけですので、シンプルです。シンプルなれど、このチェッカーが有るのと無いのとでは全く作業の捗りが違うので、大いに助かってます。フロントサスペンションのサグ出しにも使えると説明にはありますが、そもそもDRZ400smのフロントサスペンションにはプリロード調整機能が無いのでフロントについては判りません。とりあえずキチンとリアサスのサグ出しが出来た事でバイクの動きや路面情報等が以前の比にならないほどしっかりと得られる様になり、購入して良かったです。

一人でわりかし簡単に出来ます。
