That pretty much looks like a rip-off. Doesn't make sense that two washers and two spacers would solve suspension problems. Just use a little discretion here. Not saying it IS a ripoff, just saying it smells, tastes, looks, and feels like one.

They're having a laugh... All it'll do is increase the preload, which doesn't really stiffen the forks anyway. Don't know what they're up to with the fork oil- needs a litre to do an SV front. It says "rejuvenates" not replaces fork oil- as if it's going to be just adding new oil, or removing some old stuff and topping off with new. Total bodge...
How much is it for the preload adjusters off of a K2 again? It's about £40 from memory.
