Is it worth uprating suspension?

Featured Replies

I have a Neuspeed ARB and a few other mods, and am looking to improve either the handling or the brakes.. can someone who has actually uprated their suspension please let me know if it is worth it? Or would a brake upgrade be better? I have a lot of twisties where i live and would like a tighter feel to the handling. I dont mind too much about ride comfort, but dont want my false teeth to fall out ;) any opinions would be welcome :)

i have on my octy, would highly recommend it...i got my kit off ebay dirt cheap...adjustable coilover on the front normal at the back...however the front did need a bracket for the ARB welding on and took about 6-8 weeks to come.. tightened up the hadnleing no end body roll is alsmost none existant and the ride is still very decent not too hard...also teh back end does not feel as frisky as it does on the standard set up

Thanks, i was thinking about the FK coilover kit from Awesome, has anyone tried it? Or is KW the way to go? Where can i get KW kits from? The link in the Mods to do thread doesn't work :(

Cheers, so who has tried the KW 1 set up? I am no expert in suspension setups so is it really woth the extra for the 2 or 3 choice? I play with settings on my track bike but i find the factory Ohlins settings are best. I guess KW would know better than me... can someone who has KW 1 kit please let me know if it is worth the cash..
