Excellent! We Sprint pilots don't ride on the track everyday, but in the real world with bumps, potholes, garbage can lids and lumber strewn along our public roads. You paid for the suspension, so why not use all of it's available travel as opposed to just the bottom two inches. Besides, another streetwise benefit would be the increased ground clearance so you can lean into corners further instead of scraping the pegs too soon.
IMO other benefits:
a) Less dive
b) Steadier headlights at night (mine don't bounce, even in the brutal ripples.
c) Easier on the wrists and arms.
d) Easier on the entire bike assembly.
e) I find the bike very easy to handle aggressively
Now, let's work on reducing your chicken stripes
