Default Re: Suzuki Gladius - SV650 MK2 - Front suspension

Holy cow! That is the best gladius I've ever seen!

Suzuki should really make something similar. Everyone acknowledges that the suspension is lacking, and they would really have the perfect bike if they put decent suspension on.

A cheaper fix is to replace the springs. I've just had Ohlins linear springs fitted in the standard SV forks and it has transformed them. No more dive, planted in corners and no more "clunk" when riding over bumps. Best £120 I ever spent.
That is a point. I've got the bike booked in at Steve Jordan Motorcycles in two weeks time. They deal in suspension - so i'll ask them when i'm there.

Did you buy the springs for £120 and fit them yourself, or was it £120 for springs and labour?

EDIT: I also noticed that you're in Chelmsford! I'm on Canvey!
