my question is how much can one improve in term of timing from a stock absorber to a never look back Bitubo absorber

 

wat do u think

 

I though newbie' 41 have answer that, i also dun know much, never use after market shock before. Like what he said, it can help you imporve timing, but it might also slow you down. It depend on how the rider feed back, Having a good shock is good, but it still need to be properly set up for that rider.

so a never look back Bitubo absorber doesn't guarantee faster timing? then why buy a never look back Bitubo absorber? :)

coz when you ride a bike, you are suppose to look in front, and never look back

[Grave65]

LOL ... look back means .... wheelie and flipped

Pads difference doesn't make an effect like that. Bled twice by the same mech ? Maybe try another place to do the bleeding.

 

Things to check on ur front end, steering cone, wheel bearings, brake caliper pistions, lines, brake fluid, discs (wrap or wavey) and tires

Good equipment is only part of the equation. The rest is practice.

 

Again, good equpiment makes your job easier, but the rest is up to you, the rider, to fulfill.

MY 1 Cent worth of comment..

setting give confidence, confidence = faster lap times

too much power = less confidence = slower lap times

brand of shock = personal perference

agree with u bro

Hey guys,

 

Looking for GSXR 600 K5 Headlight Protector. Dun matter what colour/brand. Preferably used.

 

And also I have a GSXR 600 K5 CF rear hugger for exchange+cash top up with a standard/normal rear hugger of the same model. Cash is negotiable.

 

 

Anyone who has what I want, please sms me @ 91493310. Thanks.

So may I ask how many different suspensions have you used on your XR125 to make you conclude that Bitubo is the preferred choice? There is really no reason why I should doubt your judgement, but not when you do not have actual experience with them. Let alone a litre bike. Yeah I asked you for a recommendation so I could check if you are really sound. Maybe swopping the entire shocks doesn't really sound right to me, sometimes rebuilding them could just be the right way. Maybe I inferred the wrong idea, my bad then.

 

And again I did not judge you based on your ride, it's how you ride. Seriously, we'll talk again if you really start pushing hard on track, not at dam. Maybe you can go through the humps faster than me.

 

if you are not judging, then why bring up the matter of what ride i'm riding in the first place? aren't you just shooting yourself in your foot?

 

first of all, you asked for an recommendation. and i recommend you a brand that i'm familiar with. i can even recommend you WP and marzocchi, for my previous bike is equipped with them. but i'm sure without any doubts you will still turn around and 'test water' again.

 

the concept of suspension is the same for all bikes. the only difference is how they perform under constant extreme conditions and the ability to do fine-tuning on the settings.

 

i need not be fast to be knowledgeable about how suspension works. if your definition of fast on track = very knowledgeable about bike, then i'm afraid that your definition is screwed.

 

and fiqn asked whether should he just go for a change of suspension or just a servicing. i provided him with 2 options. nobody is forcing him at all. afterall, it's HIS bike, HIS money.

 

dragging on dam, sorry man, my licence is too precious for that.

aRcHeR aRcHeR where are you?? havent impress us with your timing yet

 

timing is not a factor. there's nothing to be impressed about.

difference is how much time the pad take to over heat and whether

it "eats" ur disc or not.

 

over heat = fading in brakes = no stopping power = crash

 

there are normal = sintered

HH

or gfa pads
