"Bike is stock. Am after price for uprated springs, and either revalve, or use of new valves."

 

 
  The standard spring and valving set-up is set to suit an average rider at about 70kg. To get the best from your bike you would need to replace fork and shock spring, revalve at a minimum and if you want the best set-up then we would recommend MX-Tech.

The revalve and re-spring will give you the best performance from the standard components. However they do leave some harsh feel and because of this are unable to deliver the best damping range and bottoming resistance.

For this we would strongly recommend MX-Tech fork and shock kits valved and sprung to suit your weight and riding demands. The MX-Tech fork and shock conversion will give you a superb controlled ride with excellent traction feel front and rear and eliminate all the harshness and other problems associated with standard fork and shock.
