Hi folks, looking for some input here. i am a 51 slow ass vet rider and am tired of the pump crap every race. I put a glide kit on the bike and it runs much better but I think I'm going to get the forks converted to spring and revalved. Any suggestions I have a quote from Factory Connection on both the shock and forks and it's not bad, but wondering if anyone has tried RaceTeck or one of the others. What difference did it make for a novice rider etc. let me know your thoughts.
I've got a set of spring a kit forks and clamps in the for sale section here, and shock. I'll separate them if OP just wants the forks.

**EDIT** sorry I didn't read your last post that you went through with the racetech kit. Good luck with it and let us now how it works out for you!
Set my sag at 105MM and went to factory settings on the rear. Felt as though the rear was a bit harsh in whoops, struggled to keep the rear planted on acceleration (wanted to drift). didn't do much to it though but will try the Racetech recommended settings of HS - 2T, LS 10 out, Reb 12 out. and go from there.
All in all I have to say that these were incredible in terms of the feel of the bike. Absolutely amazing.
