    Spada suspension rebuild

    it has come to my attention that years of abuse and little to no maintainance has resulted in my spada handling like a water bed.. symptoms include

    *front end bottoming under hard brakes
    *rear end bottoming during hard cornering
    *if it doesnt bottom out in a corner sometimes the bars will wobble like a
    mini tank slapper

    now i have been riding the spadacus for about 5 years now and iv gotten to know it pretty well, and the downturn in performance has been very noticable, im no expert on the subject but i reckon its time for a full on front and rear rebuild, springs, seals, oil, bearings.

    i would like to know if it would be worth using heavier springs, oil etc, i like to ride reasonably aggressivly so would be looking for an improvement over stock set up.

    any help here would be awesome...
    cheers, gatch
