FZS600 Fazer / front suspension upgrade
« on: 18 April 2024, 09:52:10 am »
Hello Guys,

I am almost only riding road on weekends but I do like to push myself and I find the bike sometimes gives me an unstable feel, I would like to upgrade it, also I am in love with the bike and I will be keeping it and I only want to improve it, starting with suspension.

So I was checking all the threads about R6/R1 forks and started considering it, but then I came across the thread about upgrading the stock suspension so I am leaning towards the upgrade. My question is: between the following variants:

1. Race Tech Gold Valve Cartridge Fork Emulators or other fork valves like these: https://www.wemoto.com/bike/yamaha/fzs/600/2000/1615/fork-valves

and
 
2. Andreani Misano Evo Fork Cartridge Kit: https://www.brooksuspension.co.uk/fork-internals/yamaha-fzs-600-fazer-andreani-misano-evo-fork-cartridge-kit-98-03?switch=BG or this one: Fork upgrade kit Yamaha FZS 600 Matris FSE: https://www.officine08.com/p81259_fork-upgrade-kit-yamaha-fzs-600-matris-fse.html


Would the 1st variant be half assed or is it a proper upgrade in your opinion? Should I consider it, or just move onto the full upgrade?

Also, if variant 1 is a proper upgrade, should I consider the cheaper options like these fork valves: https://www.wemoto.com/bike/yamaha/fzs/600/2000/1615/fork-valves or rule them out and go with gold ones?

FInal question, I cannot find gold valves for the exact fzs600 2000y so I am wondering would I want 41mm ones or some other diameter?

I know the price is very different, and I would always want to spend less, but the more important thing is quality of the upgrade so for my bike I am willing to spend if the fork valves variant is not a proper option.

Thanks a lot in advance for your opinions.

Best Regards
