    Nsr to Ysr's Front suspension what are you doing to improve it?

    As is the title question's? What have you guys done to the frontend of your bikes to improve the handling of it?
    I do not have any experience with Nsr's or Ysr's but looking at some of the forks.To me it looks like there's no way to make adjustements to them other than spring preload adjusters,oil wt,modding of damper rods and springs.Either way only spring preloaders offers adjustments on the fly. So though the other mods may be great you still have to compromise in order to make do with your stock forks limitations. How do you guys deal with this especially when you go to different tracks to race. If you race at the same track then i guess this wouldn't be to much of a problem or is it?

    I have done a mod(you guys might have seen before) to my forks on my mid that made the stock standard forks fully adjustable. I done this mod a long time ago and had great success with it. I just figured maybe you guys can impliment this mod your forks.

    I had to make my own fork brace but you guys with the Nsr's/Ysr's are lucky enough to be able to buy one. I didn't have that option well you know made Midbike.

    Here's some pics,if you can find away to make a bracket for your lower triple.I think this will be a great mod that you can really benefit from at the race tracks.

    The key element is the MTB shock.This will allow your stock or modded stock forks to have bound and rebound adjustments.
    Even when i modded my damper rods and added heavier wt oil. Under real heavy braking i had to hold on for dear life.LOL When i did this mod the frontend dove down nice and smooth(due to my settings of choice)plus i was able to brake even harder.Without running the wrisk of coil bind due to adding more spring preload. It was less effort me to hold on so i had more energy to race hard.!!!!

    That should work on a ysr or a nsr. You can also get rs125 forks that are fully adjustable.

    Yes i've been lookin for some rs125 forks for sometime now. I only been able to find them over seas. Also all the stock rs forks ive seen didn't have adjustments. But I did see some aftermarket ones over 900 euros.

    Check wera and usgpru for guys with Honda rs 125's. My RS has fuly adjustable stock showa forks, or you could get a sano xr70 frame and fork set. It will come with their fully adjustable forks and a fully adjustable ishock. Not to mention 12 inch rims bolt right up, and so does your mid bike motor. You can also go on webike and get ape fairings and tank cover. A LOT less work ad better than a YSR.
