Wanted: FZS1000 Maxton'd or K-tech'd front end
« on: 17 June 2015, 12:28:15 pm »
Afternoon

Just got a quote from K-tech to have my front end done, made my eyes water a bit. Does anyone have a set of front forks that have already been K-tech'd or maxton'd that they might want to sell.

In the mean time before I got down the above route are there any other options?

ta.

I'm looking at all options, IMHO Maxton aren't worth when their kit is inferior to K-techs and  isnt far of the price of the k-tech kit.

What makes you say Maxton fork internals are inferior?

Every unaffiliated suspension shop I have spoken tool, its not that maxton is bad, its just that ktech is better.
