What can be done to suspension to improve on hard low speed ride? - SteveMc278 - 02-10-13
Hi,
Read recently on here that hard suspension when riding at low speeds is characteristic of our Mk1 & 2's. So having read that - I'm now able to confirm that my bike also has this characteristic
.Back & front suspension refresh/improvement is due on my bike in the near future so - does anyone know of any tried and tested upgrades/mods which would make low speed riding over uneven surfaces more comfortable and controllable?

Hi Steve
I have just set my suspension up and its a trial and error until you get it how you like it. But before going for a mod try setting yours up with a friend. Hear is what I followed and it is really simple

Hope this helps and let us know how it goes

Yes.
My emulators in the front.
Either a 2001-2005 FZS1000 shock (with the 600's spring) or the latest model R6 shock on the back.
