Some of you may know that I was having a time with blown seals.
Someone told me to disable the ADV valve on the front fork. I was hesitant because I'm not one to disable something that the manufacturer put in (but I will rip off the rear end to make a trike.. go figure), but anyway.....
About a week ago I the seal blew AAAAGIAN. so i figured what the heck, I ordered this kit from ebay

I got it Saturday and put it on last night.
Welllllllll
When I pulled out of the garage I knew something was different. I felt absolutely NO bumps in my drive way.
It was actually scary, bumps and jars that I knew I hit yesterday going down street WERE GONE.
I went and tried to hit a few, and I swear that I could NOT feel them. The front end went from harsh and tight, to silky smooth.
As I said before I am not one to disable stuff, but had I know that by disabling this the ride was going to be that good; I would have done it the DAY I bought my bike.
ITS THAT MUCH OF AN IMPROVEMENT
So, I don't care...
find a nickle drill a hole in it,
buy this kit,
or buy some cut washers,
or whatever you have to do.....
DO this and you wont regret it...
It was just that much better
