Stock new Shocks cook up to cool 800++ bro.....(thats why our "frens" across the causeway like to "borrow" our shocks for exchange of Cold Hard Cash)

 

FR platers come with Black 1st batch of Vtecs...

Subsequent Hyper Vtecs ones come with red..

Rest are history... as of what u see now....

Heard that it's possible to only change the coil/spring of the suspension... how much anyone knows?

[Ah James]

Since S4 suspension tend to give most problem and its expensive to change a pair of suspenion..

To take care your suspension is to secure your suspension with a suspension guard to prevent it from being stolen.

You mean the rear suspension?

OR the fork?

For rear suspension you must know the sound come from the wheel bearing or your suspension. Last time i thought my suspension spoilt liao. but later then find out its my wheel bearing that is making that sound not the suspension.

Yoz guyz... Juz bought myself an FP plate Super 4... Realised that sumtimes when i rider thru a hump with a pillion.. the bottom of the exhaust will hit onto the hump.. very sianz... then the suspension also maximum liao.. the springs very soft.. nt sure if there is leaking on the suspension though... The front fork is okay though but bike is really kinda low and my pillion can place both his foots on the ground when he is on ma bike..

 

tot of either rebuilding the shocks or buy another suspension (but kinda budget)..

 

Saw from the previous posts by bros here that bikelab is quite a good place to service the suspension.. but there are some posts who also says that the suspension prob will come back after a few months or even a week after rebuilding.. izzit that risky.. from what i know, bikelab is quite a reputable place as a lot of customers has good feedback about em..

 

Sianz man.. juz changed to a 2A bike and this problem occurred...

 

Do advise.. Cheerz!!

[duckit]

it depends on the hump itself , some hump cannot be avoided sure will kana bottom of the headers, u might wanna go slint way ... if normal humps u kana , den u might wanna do something abt the suspension

[Ah James]

wat is ur weight and ur pillion weight?

[mcjagger]

My weight around 60+ while my pillion(elder bro) around 70+ at that time.. i guess it's really sumtin wrong with my suspension coz compared it with my frens bike and mine seemed a lot lower than the rest.. haven't fix the belly pan to protect the exhaust already so low...

 

was wondering what the reviews are like for those who had their suspensions rebuilt at bikelab...

 

Cheerz!

[FZ06]

Bro...unless ur pillion is a very2 tall person there's no way ur a pillion on a s4 can put both his foot on the ground..this shows that ur suspension is gone liao...imho,rebuilding of suspension is of no use at all....maybe can last u for at most 6mths...there's a thread on BITUBO suspension at a good price...u might wanna check it out...??
