    i found out that the fork guards from my 02 fe650e fit perfect on my 94 cr500. i'm no rocket scientist, or crossdesser in size 13 red slippers [like the ones dororthy from the wizard of oz had, man they are beautiful], but if the berg fit on the honda, the honda should fit the berg. they come...

    A while back I did my first Supermoto race. I was on the grid and a couple of the riders signalled to the starter that they needed him to do something. He came over and seemed to push a button or something on the front forks as the rider pushed down on the front end. What were they doing...

    '05 Fork PreLoad Spacer Removal

    I ride a lot of trails up in the Sierra mountains that are littered with rocks and logs. We even have areas that we call rock gardens that are just wide trails made up of loose rocks from 24" to 4" in diameter. To ride through those with any speed requires very supple suspension settings. The...
