New Suspension On the KLR!

Sport Rider · 04-22-2024, 05:59 PM

I had already upgraded my rear shock with a Progressive one and loved it. Now was time to get my forks repaired and upgraded. One of the forks was leaking, so I got some All Balls seals and dust covers. I also got a pair of Progressive springs and Race Tech cartridge emulators.

I got it all back together over the weekend and have taken a couple brief test rides. The improvement is great. both front and rear suspension are soft yet very controlled. I'm a newb when it comes to dirt and off-road so this setup is totally foreign to me, but it seems to work well, so I'm anxious to get some off-road riding in to really experience the bike!
