Got to be worth a go for the cost of fork oil + plastic tubing.
based on this and the nice graphs, i think it stiffens up the fork by putting you further up its graph for force/compression...http://www.sportrider.com/technicalities-spring-rate-and-preloadSo one way to make it feel firmer i guess, i did not do this, so not 100% but know some foccers have done
Blue is by far the fastest colour for on saying that I've just bought a silver 1000Ahh! great choice the silver one, I'm glad it's not just me that likes his bikes in primer.I have been chatting with anutz in messages and he has given me some things to think about fork wise, and some of the graphs that he has posted on here make sense about pre-load and spring rates, my Fazer FZS600 is a Foxy model so it has the pre-load adjusters on the fork tops, but I think I will still try a few large penny washer on top of the springs below the fork tube caps, I would guess bouncing up and down for 38K mile will have compressed/shortened the springs a tad.The info on linear springs also makes sense to as the spring compression rate remains the same albeit progressive. that sounds like bollocks now I said it. lol
If you look at the length of spring Tommy I would start with about an inch of spacer first go. Only change one thing at a time so either spacers by itself or heavier oil. Changing 2 things gives too many variables to think about. It's only time we're talking about so bit by bit and decent test ride after each tweak. Good luck and we need updates
Hey Tommy, nowt wrong with sitting on that Tyco, if you want it and can afford it then have it - one life so enjoy it. Acting your age never comes into it - my kids are always telling me to grow up. Only a state of mind as you know, biking keeps you young.

Is the fazer worth doing about £600 senpension mods, all these other mods when... It's just a fazer?I might offend a few people saying that but i have just bought a cheap one to run around, and as fun as it is - It's no match against my ZX6R or newer up right bikes
