Optimum toe in/out

[manxman]

The manual states 0+/_ 1 degree. So what is this in inches/MM measurment ? So what is the best toe in/out measurement for general touring...

The best way is laser alignment any other way is hit and miss there are many Rolo laser alignment dealers in the USA

If your shade tree aligning and measuring before and after the wheels on a horizontal plane, I'd shoot for 1/8" toe with the Spyder loaded similar to the way you ride most.
I've personally increased mine to closer to 1/4" because I really like the feel.

Is that toe IN or OUT? I'm thinking toe out would make it more squirrelly but really hook into a corner whereas IN would track straighter on long interstate runs?

This may help, if you read it all, you can see how I used the tools I have on hand to align the toe in. Same I used to do several other trucks and such.

Yep, that's basically how we've done a bunch for years. Mostly on Jeeps and a handful of Spyders too. It's not rocket science, and we've actually found that not one set of numbers works for everyone. Some seem to like a bit more toe while others like a bit less.
