Re: what parts do i need
seems like a lot of effort to be honest, maybe could upgrade the springs in the standard forks

Re: what parts do i need
yes you could and yes it will make a difference depending on your weight but it will still not compensate for the rebound control.
your bike, your money

Re: what parts do i need
If your looking at keeping a stock front, have a look round for cartridge internals like these
http://www.andreanigroup.com/en-us/s...6&reparto=moto I've got these in the curvy and they are brilliant, get a couple of stanchions too means its all refreshed

Re: what parts do i need
could also do that
anything is a possibility, i guess it would be quite expensive to get someone to put a new front end wouldnt it?

Re: what parts do i need
to get someone to do the work yes but it's not hard unless that is you are a complete buffoon with tools.
