Rick's Fork Upgrade Kit

Post by Doomah » Mon Oct 20, 2008 3:22 am

As subject - who here has bought and fitted one of Rick's fork uprate kits for the NC30? What'd you think of it? I'll probably buy one anyway, but I'm interested in knowing peoples' opinions :) . Thanks!

Hi I fitted one a few months back and it made a great deal of difference, made it feel like a new bike!! :D I fitted an RS250 rear shock at the same time, a great combination. RO's instructions are very clear and straight forward, I took mine apart in the evening and back together the next morning, I didn't want to rush anything.
Well worth the cash.

i fitted his kit to my nc35 and completely changed the front end for the better.

on my way to get the same for my nc30. for what you pay you get a hell of a return :D

i don't own a kit yet but i'm looking into owning one, i rode vipers bike with it in an it felt near enough the same as my bike thats got ohlins internals,and to be honest i think you'd need to be rossi to find the differences.

They're £80 Spike, though I'm not sure what delivery would be. Check Rick's price list for other bits (see link below)
