R6 forks (non USD) for Gen1
#18
I haven't involved the angle grinder yet just the change of oil wt and amount used, which was approx 400 per leg @4.75" from the top.

Cost £9.50  and damping quality is a huge improvement.

With std length fork springs  fitted I wouldnt advise raising the forks more than 20mm as I found this will risk contact between fork leg and bottom yoke, which is unfortunate as the bike feels even better at 30mm+. :'(

Is there much reduction in fork travel  from the 1" spring cut and longer spacer ?

I really need to find a way to reduce the fork travel by 20mm now so I can run 30mm through the yokes with peace of mind.

I felt the extra 10mm turned from a really fit Fazer into almost thinking you were riding a sport 600. :b
