Default suspension review

Hagon progressive springs = pants
ZX6R B1 rear shock = too soft and lacks rebound damping

However the bike ran well and got used to the 10k redline. Just couldn't push as hard as i like through corners as it was squatting on the power and pushing the front. However the bendix race pads worked very well and the rest of the bike held together so overall very happy..

Now to get the zx6r shock fettled and new fork internals sorted.

piccies below
