to revalve or not to revalve?

[Tag 13]

Tag, I had Racetec do mine with 1.2kg fork springs and gold valves the 1.2kg fronts are a little heavy for me as I only weigh a 100kg, I should have gotten 1.1kg's.

They also fitted a 17kg rear spring and gold valves to the rear but this was only needed for the longer swingarm.

All up was just over a grand and money well spent. She is just a touch to firm now but a nice all round compromise. Compliance and handling is a big improvement. You would need 1.1kg springs if you are still stock length.

i am much heavier. we are looking at around the 1.5mm mark as far as springs in the front go. me at 125, some riding gear, the turbo up front. it all ads up quickly.

everyone i have spoken to who has got their suspension beefed up seems to be happy with it..
