For the ease of modifying the front forks and low cost this is really a mod that should be more popular. They make the front forks react appropriately. Bike rides and handles like a motorcycle now!

I agree. Although I went a different route in terms of rear suspension, at the end of the day the fork valves, fork brace, and rear shock are probably the most significant upgrades to the bike in terms of overall riding capability and feel. If I sit on a standard Hawk and go back to my bike it doesn't feel anything close to the same bike.
