thanks

I bought some cheap cloth tape measures, taped the end to the brake caliper at the rear and the fork bottom at the front.
then ran the measure over the indicator at both ends.
weight the measure so it runs over the indicator as you load and unload the bike
put a tape mark on the indicator and then record the numbers, fully extended, unloaded sag and rider sag
- i was doing it one-handed so Isat backwards for the rear: but as far up the tank as i could to minimise the fact that the weight of my legs was further back than seated normally
