The front and rear brake disk

Marios

you will need to get the wheels balanced and so get the rim locks out altogether.

if you increase the compression you loosen the rebound...

play it by ear!

a simple look at the manuals tells you that the SM boys run far heavier springs. if i ran a 44 on the dirt i would need a 48 for SM i think.

there is so much work to be done that ytou'll need to go into this a lot deeper than your simple question suggests!

Hey Cypriot,

Assuming that the wheels you ordered are KTM/Husaberg aftermarket parts they wil share the same hub, therefore the disks should fit fine. However, this is something you need to confirm with your dealer perhaps?

As for the suspension issue, they will always dive "a lot" compared to a sports bike. Now, you have FE suspension which is taller than sm suspension and will move even more. The ideal solution is to lower the suspension with an insert and then change the spring accordingly, then revalve as per your suspension preferences but obviously this costs money.

As for just knocking up the compression and rebound damping, it doesn't really work that way because you'll compromise the suspension's ability to move with the road surface which could cause you more problems than you solve. For example, too much rebound damping and the suspension could jack down, too much compression damping and the tyres become unable to follow the road properly.

On the rear, you might want to slightly increase the high speed compression damping to give you more sports bike like feel but keep the same low speed compression damping to give the suspension the ability to cope with bigger undulations etc.

So, it's a world of compromise and no straight answer but if I were you, I would get your bike sorted out with the wheels and brakes, set the sag as is appropriate and then get used to the additional movement - only once this really gets in the way of performance do you then spend the money on springs and valving.

Keep in mind that I know someone who ran only 4 seconds a lap slower than the world supermoto championship riders using a yamaha yz450 on standard off-road suspension!

Hope this helps,

Simon
