Which would be a better option for upgrading the front end on the M2. Inverted S3 forks or Race Tech cartridges? Thanks Andrew | ||

I was going to start with the Race Tech springs. Then add the cartridges later. The complete up-side-down forks introduce a lot of new variables. (Message edited by jayvee on May 26, 2006) | ||

From a cost vs. performance standpoint, you'd be better off upgrading the stock fork. You'd be tailoring the damping and spring rates for your specific needs, whereas you'd be starting from scratch with a new fork. USD doesn't automatically mean better. | ||

"I was going to start with the Race Tech springs. Then add the cartridges later." My plan exactly. I'm at the extreme end of sag with the preload set a maximum so I need the heavier springs. A fork kit will come later. | ||

I got a deal on some S3 WP forks and trees -- they'd been well-sorted for the S3, and didn't take a lot of fiddlin to work out for my MaDuece USD DOESN'T mean better, necessarily, but the extra adjusment (for less dough than cartridges in this case) is most welcome It is better to be shot from a gun than squeezed from a tube -- HSThompson |
