Finally got everything installed. Went for a good spin and wow quite a difference. A combination of new rubber and the fork rebuild , bike feels more planted and better control,less dive and most importanrly no more leaking fork oil on my rotor:):):)

great info...thanks for the info....I'll be digging into this shortly...adjustable caps would make this easier.

This looks cool ...just put air in and done. Too harsh, deflate , to soft inflate

Thanks again...wish I had ordered the right adjustable fork caps. I guess the adjustables would make adjusting sag alot easier. I'll look up sag write up.

Gary...what is the best way to measure preload ? RT has 2 methods.

The springs came with a metal tube...I can just cut it to length. Would 140 mm air gap be less harsh?? Better rebound?? Ouch...your Devils got smoked last ngt.

Received my springs and gve's yesterday. The set-up sheet says blue springs 2 3/4 turns with 10mm preload and 130mm airgap at 15wt oil. Just got to put everything in and measure for preload, I guess our factory spacer will be too short.

Received my adjustable fork caps but ordered the wrong ones....43mm suzuki. Won't fit the FZ6...back to China they go. I guess I could order the correct ones and adjust prelaod again. Just wondering how many holes do I drill on the dampenig rod?? 3 per rod or 6? Racetech says 5/16ths in size.

Ya for sure ,if I have any questons I will ask for sure. I ordered new seals and bushings ( left fork fork is leaking) and ordered a adjustable fork cap from Amazon. Should have ordered the caps sooner....could be delivered as late as early June.

Dreams indeed. The 180 pound days are over. Thanks for the reply Gary, Hopefully the install goes smoothly....never worked with forks before but much over due.

My left fork started to leak so this would says to round offbe a good time to do a a whole new front suspension rebuild. Gold valves and new Race Techs but just wondering on the spring rate would be best, My weight varies from 190 tp 197 and the calculator says round off to .90. Ive read it's...

I have the Air Hawk 2. It is better than the seat but my butt still gets numb pretty quick. I still have to tinker with it ..I'm sure it could do better. Most trips over a couple of hours I am wearing a back pack which probably doesn't help either.

Thanks for the good info.....i will adjust the chain at it's tightest spot and see. I will check the front sprocket and see wats going on there. Back one looks good. I am the 5th or 6th owner so who knows what has been done down there. I have the bike manual but not more detailed tech manual.

I adjusted my chain and all seems right until i move my back wheel and the chain seems to too tight....move the wheel some more and it is loose again. Wats up with this...chain or sprocket or both??

I was going to order one tonite( touring) but i'm not sure if it is too wide for db Puig. Hinges are roughly 11" apart so it would be close. I may have no choice and have to order the the sport model.

Thanks...I would go for the touring model too...with the clamp style. Would hate to drill holes in my new Piug.

I'm interested in one of these...which one did u get??? sport or touring model??

Shop around for sure. The stealership is trying to make some bucks. I bought mine last May for 4800.00 and that was still too high...but when u want a bike in the spring , you will pay .

Nice. ..I wish it would warm up where I am Sent from my SGH-I747M using Tapatalk
