:wink: :-D

and of course, the secret from Devi. :wink: :-D The suspension mods will wait a few weeks when it warms up a little and I git a chance to play around with the stock suspension some more, then I'll do the swap. :-D

 

[jrussell6]

that thing is lookin good cheap, i love the look of the pegs and peg brackets, ***** you and your upgrades.

 

[Limey]

I'll be interested how that works. Its affordable at $250

 

[S32k1]

I feel like you Cheap, I haven't ridden speedy in about 2 months now. The bikes in the shop and the motor is gettin rebuilt, so soon I hope!

 

[BUCKET]

Lookin good,Hyperpro,is that like a really energetic prostitute? :-D :hammer:

 

[Curmudgeon]

Leave plenty of time to get that %[email protected]#[email protected]#%$ rear shock off and re-installed on the bike. That remote reservoir is really wedged in its home.

 

[Curmudgeon]

By the way, cheap, are both ends' spring(s) progressive?

 

[corners]

Nice upgrades you got going on there bro When did you win the lottery??? :razz:

 

[s3hooligan]

Looks like he's got a fender "mod" on his truck also

 

[Goffe]

So, what do you want to accomplish with the suspension mods, especially the front?

And what model is the fork kit? I didn't see any 1050 kits on their site (nor anyone else's for that matter.)

can they revalve the rear , is the front just springs or did it come with valving as well

is it a generic type of kit or do they spec the kit on the rider weight?

[Cheapbastard]

When I purchased my Zard from Steve, we were talk'n suspension, and he told me about the kit, and that sorry arse ended up talk'n me into it and "upsold" me one. :wink: :-D

To answer your questions about the springs being 'progressive', yes, both the rear and front springs are constant rising rates. As for the color of the rear spring, I was informed that they can get them in certain colors, but they will only be ordering their stock in one color, so if you guys can all agree on a color ya like, I can relay the message, and they can git the rear springs in that color. :wink: :-D

one of the main things I'm look'n to accomplish with the front Goffe, is rid her mostly of the front end dive when on the brakes. I read a nice report on a guy that installed this kit on his FZ1 and his impressions sounded very good. You can read about his supsension upgrade here --------> clicky :-D

 

[Devious2XS]

Black works for me.

I am very interested in your riding impressions with the springs after a few weeks. This may be what many of us bigger riders have been looking for.

Are MOST Brits under 80kg?

oh, and yes, the truck has quite a few front end mods. :hihi: Bumper, grille, fender, hood, and a few others. But what can I say, gave $800 fer her and she hasn't caused me a bit of trouble in 2 years. :wink: :-D

 

[R100Pilot]

Gee, and I thought your next mod was gonna be one o' these...

 

[Devious2XS]

R100 - WOW!
That looks like one of the latest velocity stacks on my Speed Triple! LOL

Not this one! Think 80kg covers my left leg. :-D

 

[Devious2XS]

Limey - Now THAT is funny!
I have a couple of Brit cars. The manuals for both suggest suspension and alignment with 80 kg in each seat. The Speed Triple seems to be set up for near the same weight as far as shocks and springs - especially as you add power.
