Get your forks out and off to Roger Ditchfield would be my suggestion. He will fit the correct weight related linear fork springs and do the valve stack too.

You might be able to fit all the above yourself and save a few bob, but I doubt very much you'll have the experience that Roger has in setting them up to get the best results.

Thanks Guys
I'm finally going to sort this out and post them to Revolutionuk.
I'm a bit pissed off with Honda right now.Wife thinks Honda should foot the bill.All VTR forks started bad I believe.

yes, front end is way too soft and underdamped, and rear is too stiff..............I think the suspension team were not talking to the rest of the project team during the development, the 20stone development rider didnt notice :lol:
