both our fairinged bikes 750 and busa are 43% front 57% rear
not a planned bias, just the way it worked out and seems to be what we need on those bikes

That is what I have, too.  I was afraid it was not enough.  It was a lot of work getting that weight distribution and I am real glad it is close to normal.  The swingarm was lengthened 3 inches to put more weight on the front wheel.  The trail was increased by decreasing the offset rather than increasing rake to keep weight on the front.  The gas tank is full and I ride as far forward as I can.
