hi , guys.I got few question i would like to check with you all , 1) if downfork bike make any different?

2nd) does installing rear suspenion have a big differen too? 3) And anyone here had install HEL breaklines? cause i been having phobia of skidding.

 

1. Downfork in theory is to make ur bike more stable. Since the bike is lower, so when u corner u are more stable n more balance. Tats wat i feel when i corner. Coz i down fork. But mostly the reason i downfork coz it looks more fierce.

2.rear suspension is to absorb impact applied at the rear tyre. N having aftermarket suspension makes ur bike higher n better posture while riding.

3. I using hel brake lines. One thing i would say, its superb!!! But since ur afraid of skiding, go practice intermediate braking. Cos hel brake lines are just to strong..

My 2 cents on bringing ur fork down and changing rear suspension.

Ur fork is meant to move up and down, it absorbs alot of uneveness of the road surface. When u lower it, please have ur forks harden so it wont bottom out. Its nice but it takes away the usefulness of ur forks moving parts.

Rear suspension change depends on individual.... High doesnt mean good especially if u lower ur forks too much... You must achieve balance for the front and rear set up... Just my 2 cents...

The guru speaks here? :lol:

 

Lightly touchin on it and not into details. Adjusting the height of the shocks will change the geometry of the bike. Different geometry the handling of coz will differ. :cool:
