Has anyone used K-Tech to up-rate their suspension???

Cousin used em on his race bike, and said they did a brilliant job. I'm looking for some other peoples reactions to their work, and how well they do it for the SV650..

Haven't used them, but they have a decent reputation. There is an article in this months T.W.O. where they use a K-Tech revalved original shock for a Kwaka ZX10R and they say it makes a big difference.

But then, a full rebuild does not come cheap... Most of the prices I've seen bruited about come to more than I paid for the (used) Ohlins...

You talking about front, rear or both?

It would be worth trying R.A.W Performance (Rob Wittey) - he has raced an SV for a couple of years now and has done the forks for a load of the racers. He used to work for PDQ and really knows his stuff.

You can get him on 07966 280851.
