Well I have always kinda dreamed of "kit" forks and now i have good offer for used cone valves(little over 100h I think) for my 18 fc350. If i go for Cones should I buy shock too? And I am still considering KYB/öhlins inserts too(cones about same price).
Well whats your thoughs about it and how has your experience with kit suspension and inserts been?

If you’ve got the money to blow on in then sure go for it!! But remember a top 10-20 pro said it isn’t necessary for him. So what does that say for us?

I love cone valves on my KTMs. I have 2 friends with KYB conversions and they love them also. The only advantage of non inserts is that you can keep the forks for your next bike.
Enzo and RG3 are doing the KYB conversion for $1500.
They don’t require any extra maintenance then a regular set. I typically get my suspension serviced every 25-40 hours.
CV forks need tuning. Some tuners do change out the MS to a Showa MS.
