DRZ 400 Motard Setup...


So, I rode the bike down at VIR after installing the heavier rear spring I got from you. It was much better, thanks for all of your help!

The stiffer rear highlighted the too-soft front end, which made for a nerve-racking ride in some corners. I want to send you my forks for some heavier springs and maybe upgraded valves. What is your turn-around time this time of year? I know its the start of race season, so you are probably busier than a one-armed paperhanger with crabs. Just let me know when is convenient, and what you recommend we do (I'll only be using it for a street/track bike, no more dirt.)

Thank you, senor, I owe you many beers.

Yeah there about 500 clams HOT not really COOL but allegedly they will improve the "feel" when trail braking into turns and stuff.
