I assume mine is standard as I've never altered it, but that's not to say the previous owner didn't alter it!!

Hi cski1, any chance you can send a copy my way? I have been looking for a pdf copy.

My bike came with 4 "sides of a coin showing" for a lack of a better term.
Every new Tuono I've seen comes from the factory this way..

It's different on the older V4's.
2 rings showing is stock.

I've read that before and thought it was the wrong way around.
Surely for track and tighter faster bends you would want a steeper rake so quicker turn in, whereas by dropping to 2 or 3 rings showing you are slowing down turn in.

Rizla, Agreed. Unless it's a long straight track with very few bends! 
. I think that manual must be wrong.
Good summary of rake, trail and offset here:

So, more rings showing = steeper fork angle = shallower rake & trail angles = faster turn in, but less stable on straights. Which is just wot Rizla says!
