Motorcycle Suspension Servicing & Upgrades

Motorcycle suspension plays a major part in the bikes over all performance, and yet your shock absorber and front forks are often overlooked during service schedules. The service and maintenance schedule of the suspension will depend on the nature of riding styles of its rider.  Track days or short circuit racing will see front and rear suspension stripped and serviced a number of times within a seasons racing. Commuter bikes and weekend pride and joys should have a routine inspection and overhaul every two to three years, the oil alone will become tired and internal bush wear often takes place, left too long and Anodised coatings inside of their chambers will wear thin and result in reduced damping in the shock and forks.

                                                         

 

Your suspension is in safe hands, we are a K-tech service centre, we have trained suspension technicians. With a recent investment in Ohlins and K-tech factory tools we are able to service Showa, Kayaba, Ohlins, K-tech and Nitron shocks and forks.

We are proud to partner with K-tech equipment, their Vacuum machine and Nitrogen gas equipment is a leading industry standard.

Most manufactures depending on bike model will look to fit entry level basic suspension, some shocks just are not capable of taking upgraded internal components and a replacement shock would be the recomended upgrade.

Depending on your budget we can supply upgraded shocks from YSS suspension, however if your budget can go a little further we would recommend a K-tech upgrade, Most quality Showa and Kayaba shocks really benefit from a re-valve and service, some of our club racing customers run standard Showa units with our custom K-tech internal upgraded components, please call to discuss your requirements.
