I'm going to pay your shop a visit in the very near future.

Thats just the thing there are some very comprehensive kits out there, some of which though arent minitwin legal as your not allowed to change the fork caps. IMHO the emmulators when set up well with the correct oil/air gap to suit the rider work superbly and dont over complicate the fork. Lots of minitwin guys and gals run that setup.

TBH though the best front end...fit a GSXR front end from a K4 onwards bike..only downer is it not legal.!.

To be fair mate, the wife reads it as you have. But she doesn't own the rights to the series! If forks must be, externally, as they came out the factory then the rules should state this in less ambiguous terms.
Don't worry about it mate, you'll give Dave a good run in the modified...

But toot, Your forks have *two* adjusters on the top of each! Is that one for "compression" preload and one for "rebound" preload? ;)
