UK NC30 engine overhaul.....

on the fork and shock rebuild, get a Rick o fork upgrade kit, and a decent shock on the back. I wouldnt bother getting the original shock refurbed as its never going to be as good as something modern. Definatly worth the money and probably the most noticeable improvement you could make to your bike!

plus one for a forks overhaul. For around about 100GBP (including one of Ricks kits, seals etc) this is IMHO the best improvement you can make for the money.

Rear shock, there are a multitude of options from getting the OEM one refurbed (I know some of the guys have used these people - http://www.brooksuspension.co.uk/), to swapping it for an alternative from another bike (The BMW S1000 seems to be the flavour of the month), through to a plethora of aftermarket trick bits. Check the depth of your pockets and how much willy waving is important and make your choice

If you want to keep it stock looking and not overly fast etc go for a hagon shock

I have had 2 Hagons, both have been dire. Poor service/backup from the company too.
Never again.

I stand corrected

Overhaul or an aftermarket racey type one then

Also agree that the hagons are shit, Maxton or Nitron are the ones id go for both are well made for the money.
