Well i would just say that the fork is only good enough for the road. The little rebound damping at the end of the stroke u feel is actually from the top out spring. So There is NO rebound damping as far as i am concerned from the stock rebound valve.

well for cheaper alternative u can try to revalve the fork.

[Khuboy]

do u mean just revalve the rebound?

Hm nevermind, u need to know the internals before u can understand what i am trying to say. just buy some after market piston kits should be far superior than stock. look at all the big names in suspension. should cost u from 350 onwards for the kit.

foot peg cover is a plastic cover which covers the opening to install ur pillion foot peg.. once u install it there wont be any opening on ur undertray.. price wise im not so sure thou..

ok i think i roughly know wat u talking about alredy, went thru some notes on revalving. maybe when i master diy tuning alredy, my next project will be diy revalving...

yesterday went to change tyres at unique motor, intend to change k2 but no stock. in the end change dragon supercorsa pro. the tyres seems to be wat i looking for, get warm up real fast during daytime. its stick to the road like gum, those who r changing tyres i recommend this. damage is just $385, and u r ready for track or street.

tats my first time patronising, so far i will say i give a 7/10 marks. They check my wheels and bearings when they change tyres, in the end found my front wheel bearing ceased, change new bearings. Think could be due to my hard brakings. anyway back to topic i see they r very carefull with the tools and my bike to prevent any scratch, thumbs up. BUt they dun seem to be using the correct tools, they use a hammer to tap the bearing instead of using a mallet, thumbs down.

 

As an engineer myself, i think the best mechanic or engineer out in the industry should always use proper tools for respective jobs.

if thats the case u can adjust it. just loosen the clamping bolts of the left handle that clamping onto the left fork. then slightly adjust the handle angle back towards u when sittin on the bike. hope u understand what i saying...
