Lucas_Maestro Started a new thread Fork Noise/Air
1/30/2019 4:33am I took my forks off to fix a bearing. I randomly took a fork and turned it upside down. I heard a "glug glug glug" similar to when you pour water out of a bottle fast. It is as if there was loads of air moving in the oil up and down the fork. Is this normal or should i...

The stock stuff on the Yamaha can be set up real good. Good enough that I would say no. I bought CV forks for a 17 KX450 not because my riding ability warranted them but because the SSF TAC forks were so bad and I got a good deal. If I had a Yamaha, I wouldn't have needed them. Spend some time and money setting up your stock stuff and you'll be happy.

1/28/2019 9:46am Depends what bike you have. I think kit suspension or upgrading to KYB/Showa on KTM and Husky are worth it for any level rider. The new Yamaha and Honda are very good out of the box. Maybe just a revalve on those or correct springs can get those perfect!

1/28/2019 9:46am Keefer said something along the lines of average guys have no need for A-Kit suspension.If you are a super fast intermediate and have the money to blow, then I guess why not. If you don't really have the extra money to drop, I wouldn't bother.

Have you got them set-up by Race Tech or someone first? I would think that would make a huge difference, you don't really need A-Kit stuff till you're blowing people out of the water in A class races.
