That's 62.4% front, 37.6% rear static, and about 80% - 20% max braking!

For the record, the piggy TTR came in at...

LF 1016 FR 987
LR 706 RR 697

Total: 3406

That's stock with 3/4 tank of fuel, spare, jack, &c. The tire bag, floor mats, tonneau cover and owner's manual were removed, and no driver.

It's amazing it doesn't topple end over end on hard braking!

And I complain about a little nose dive. There should be a lot more nsoe dive that has been engineered out, evidently.

Stoptech brakes and R-compound tires might do it (lol)...

Estimating CG height, @ about -1.85 g's (braking) the rears would lift!

I suggest that lots of anti-dive geometry is designed into the front suspension.
