for stoppies, should you run the frnt suspension stiffer than stock from the factory?

This guy runs the suspension on his 04 gixxer on the stock settings and it seems to be working for him!

Can you make the front suspension bouncy? or rigid? And for you OP i'd stick with stock settings. Get that down then start tweaking to find which way is better. FOR YOU.

^ nonsense from a noob. shouldn't be giving advice if you don't know.

i'm no stoppie master, but from the guys that i know that roll crazy ones:
compression: up all the way and back a bit
rebound: up all the way and back a bit
preload: down all the way and back a bit
24psi in the front tire
you want your shit stiff so your brake lever input shifts your bike angle, and doesn't bounce the suspension, but not so stiff that your tire locks up before all the weight can transfer to the front of the bike
