Suspension 101

Recommended Posts

Just dropped my new 500 off this morning.  I've heard such good things about George and his work.  With the new closed Chambers on the 2024 KTM's, George just developed new gobblers I believe.  I hear I can hit some pretty aggressive stuff and would like to do some racing again.   I'll post up an update when I get the suspension back next week and ride the rally

 

So excited!!

Yes, keep us posted! I got the gobblers on my xplor fork and the adjustment is great, but these xplor forks really needs his midvalve upgrade for the high speed hits. Slower stuff the gobblers alone are fantastic. I wanted to try it in stages, but I should have just gotten it all done at once. I think your 24 forks come with a midvalve already installed so all you should need is the gobblers and his valving and you should have a great ride. Stoked to hear the feedback.

I will for sure.  I am going for the Pro build, specifically for high speed stuff

So I got to ride out in the desert this weekend. Pretty easy riding due to the riders I was with, but I have to say, so far I am thoroughly impressed.  The forks are amazing, the rear feels real good. I need to mess with the rebound a bit. Overall it’s night and day better than OEM.   Wow.  I am glad I did it so soon.  
 

when I get to ride some rougher stuff and higher speed stuff, I’ll post another update

Congrats man!

There's nothing like a new bike, and getting it set up for you.

I'm currently neck deep in doing the same with a Norden 901 expedition.

Thanks Zubb!   I am mostly shocked just how comfortable I am on this for being new and be being off a bike for 7 months.  Felt like I've owned and raced it for years.  That Norton will be a sweet machine when the suspension is done. Not that its bad now,
