FZS600 VS Modern Machines

[noggythenog]

Not a standard FZS600 but one thats had a little bit o money thrown at suspension.Brakes in my opinion are fine & the engine more than capable & quick as is.


Not counting ABS


How does it compare with modern machines????,anyone come back to the FZS from a supposedly more exotic machine????


How much are we talking for the best suspension on offer or the next best thing at a reasonable price & how long will this stuff last ie - if the fazer did see an end then could you re coup a good chunk of the money through resale if it was ohlins???,standard shocks are supposedly done in after 10k so how long does the good stuff last?

Ok so that last post was a bit long winded


Anyone know the life span of a good shock, how many miles???? Hagon,nitron,ohlins


When its passed its best then how much to get them reconditioned & do any of the above recondition better/cheaper than the others?


Cheers!

If you hang on about a week I'll get back with another (cheaper) alternative ;-)

Going rate is about £100 for a rebuild every 20,000 miles or so. You can get the oem shock rebuilt for around the same price too.
