Fit a pair of these in the front forks - no need to change springs - http://store.ricorshocks.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=32

You will not be disappointed - about an hour and a half to do the job.

And if you want to go the whole hog one of these for the back - http://www.nitron.co.uk/nitron09/ind...roducts_id=551

I've got both of these on my K8 and they have transformed the bike. No fluid locks on the front - plenty of feel and grip and the back doesn't hop around the corners and more or give up the ghost when the shock heats up. Read the reviews before you commit.

Good luck.
