G'day Bomber,

Sorry to hear about the accident, but great that you still enjoy the bikes !!

You may need to have another try at the post, cause I have been over it several times and can't work out what you're trying to ask ?

Are you suggesting your front forks are not up to scratch ??? if so what has the retro fairing got to do with it ?

I have had a couple of glasses of Red, so maybe that has clouded my perception, but some clearer info would be a help.

regards
Rick

The front forks need to be improved as they compress to much even just sitting on the bike. When 1 of my riders is on it ever road or track they say the front end is a little vague in feel. Like to know the best way to go in getting the front to work better. Improving the shocks that on it now if can be done.
