Aftermarket Suspensions

[3/4gixxer]

Anyone have any aftermarket shocks? What's your thoughts on brands?

[rybo]

My thoughts would be to get with TK or Clarkie and get the internals of your stock parts redone. What the exterior of the shock or fork looks like is trivial comparted to the parts inside. Also if you haven't spent the time setting up your stock stuff for your weight and riding style, do that first as it will make a much bigger difference than what parts you happen to be using.

That being said, if you want to throw 10K at your front end, the Ohlins superbike forks look nice :hump:

Put the Ohlins on the rear with a softer front spring setup from RaceTech. The thing rides like it is on rails.

Thanks folks, I am in the process of redoing the front with Race Tech springs and such. Had the oportunity to get a White Power setup for the rear at a really good price too and wasn't sure if would be worth it.

Anything is better than stock ---- especially 10 year old stock

Couldn't agree more now that I've got it back! Marv at RMK set me up nice! Haven't felt that good in corners since.......ever!
