I have a set of upgraded forks and upgraded 2012 shock that will be available as of tomorrow. Shock: £200 plus postage. 2012 balance free shock, that has been re-valved and re-sprung by Maxton. (A big improvement over the 08-11 shock). Spring suits a rider of around 100-110kg, though you can get this re-sprung to suit if need be. Forks: £725 Ono plus postage. 08-11 forks. 9k miles from new (I'm the only owner of the bike) ABS model. These have just been overhauled and upgraded less than 100 miles ago. (I'll dig out the thread where we did all the work and paste it in) http://1000rr.co.uk/maintenance/16884.htm These are like a majic carpet ride now they have been dialled in. Upgrades to the forks: Ohlins 20mm piston kit Ohlins Springs K-Tech Flow Control Valves New oil seals New dust seals Silkolene Pro RSF 5W fork oil Upgraded parts alone cost £475 for the forks and have covered less than 100 miles. Upgrades to the shock would have cost £200 alone. Anyone that has seen my bike can vouch how clean and tidy I always keep it, and nothing has any expense spared. Also included with the forks will be the standard springs and all Ohlins packaging/info.
Just brought a 2012 shock off SPS on the forum and was thinking of upgrading my forks Would I need to change anything on my bike to get these to fit I have a 2008 blade very tempting
All still available. Open to sensible offers guys. If not I'll keep the forks and flog the shock on eBay. Sorry about the late reply guys. Been on nightshift and forgot to set up notifications to this thread.
Shock still available? This shock still out there mate? Damn- not getting the hang of the pm thing at all-sorry. GaryS
I am interested in the forks. What do you get for your money ? Is it the gold covers and Ohlins springs? I wish to put the forks straight onto my 2009 blade; I don't need the original Honda springs! How much to post them to me?
