Anyone else notice Jett’s bike looked soft af and Deegs looked Stiff as a board?  Hunters looked pretty balanced but Jett’s was diving heavy under breaking and Deegs looked like it was harsh and kicking around a lot.

I saw pretty much the same thing…. Jet’s looked plush and Deegan’s looked harsh. However, both looked FAST regardless.

I thought both brothers run pretty much the same set ups.That’s why hunters bike was ready to roll and took some days  off the lost championship before riding.

Riding styles make a huge difference to how a bike appears to handle on the track..

Though I wouldn’t be surprised if Jett was running a softer setup initially because; he hasn’t been pushing as hard in training, and/ or to compensate for his injury.

Depends on what the rider tells his mechanic as to which way the setup goes from the preferred base setup.

After moto 1, Will reported that Honda stiffened up Jett's suspension.   The settings were softer from practice and Jett had requested firmer for moto 2.
