Front Forks

[Fridgehq]

Hey MOT , Nice to have met you down at Laguna Triumph Ashford,was well impressed with your front fork upgrade, only problem is I am now trying to talk the misses into giving me some cash so I can do the same in the winter.

LOL she won't let you out again !!

Maxton & Ktec both do good work with suspension...I know a lot of the boys on here fit the Racetech stuff but in the end I wanted someone in the know to marry the spring, valve oil & air gap to get the best from them. I pleased with the result...compliant with control.

Your old bus is in fantastic nick, I'd forgotten how imposing a black speed triple can be !!

Ride safe

what did you have done to your forks exactly?and howe much did it cost?

The compression adjusters had seized so they were replaced with Ktechs own which have a greater adjustment then stock, The standard spring rate was ok for my 11 1/2 stone frame but the damper was revalved to a better spec and the oil replaced for 5wt air gap set at 125mm. They look to have honed(sp) the surface of the forks to give a uniform finish to the chrome and fitted new fork seals.

I think they charge about £130 for a fork service and mine cost about £230...good value when you consider you can spen £200 on a pair of tyres (if you want !).

They come back with a list of base settings to start the twiddling process ;-)
