Default WCW Suspension

I know I know, it's so early but I can't stand sitting here on my ass getting fatter waiting to ride hoping the bike will pull my newly fat winterized ass.

You gonna do a WCW Suspension day Joe?
I know I need it again, I'm up over 10#'s from last year

If you are reaching 10K miles on the clock it's time to drop the forks for some fresh fluid too.

I replaced the fluid, seals and wipers on the forks and threw in a brand new OEM shock out back. Everything feels nice and fresh now

Oh nooooo we is on the same brain wave??
You might be in trouble

I only have maybe 1200 miles on the bike so when it comes time to replace, I'll do like I did withh the R6...replace the guts on the forks with Ohlins and or race tech, and the shock...well I doubt I'll wanna spend over 1k on it so I may do the replace the stock or rebuild it...I have time yet.

WOW I need alot of work to do yet....damper, tires, sprockets...ughhhhh.

and DAVE I don't feel like destroying this bike just yet so I'll wait the track days out til mid season...punk

Why is your bike super stiff? That is typically the wrong way to set a bike up, street or track.
