    Looks like they're only at the pre-order stage with the rears.

    For what? DRS? The KLRs are being shipped out the door as fast as they can make them. First accounts seem to be pretty positive tho I guess a few thousand Kms will tell.

    It provides a dampening curve that gets progressively stiffer as the forks try to compress faster
    Uh, so its progressive. Theres no point - your forks are already progressive.

    I'd go with the emulators.

    NZ$284.05 Landed and possibly better now that the Kiwi buck has strengthened. I can't see why Ricor can't ship these in a mailer. Seems alot of expensive air being shipped. Could probably fit another 3 or 4 sets in the same box, so can be cheaper if a few go in together on an order.

    Was that thru the ricor site? They seem to be quoting me $300 US + postage & they don't even know I'm in NZ. Unless it auto converts the currency.


    Oooorrr I haven't put in a klr650.net discount no. or something...

    Need to put klr650.net into the promo code box- that'll make it a 50% discount so def worth it. Took about a week to get here

    stop faffing around and buy the bloody things

    you'll be rapt with the improvement.

    I had to drop the scrambler back to Tim today and pick up my klr so I went home via the Karapoti/Maungakotukutuku Valley and deliberately hammered the front end. Things that would have bottomed the forks with a hard clunk now just get 'dealt with'.
    These are the best days
