Guys
I have a 92 R100RS. One of the pinch bolts has a broken casting. Some PO had through bolted it with a nut and bolt. Seems fine. But the guy I got the bike from had got a set of complete used fork legs. I am thinking of installing better springs in the spare set and what ever other improvements there are to make and swapping them out. The old existing forks on the bike have fresh seals and fresh oil. They are VERY compliant but a bit squishy for my taste. Seems like too much sag as well, using up too much travel though I have never bottomed.
Anyway, thinking of souping up the spare set. Any suggestions? I guess I could go the normal route and drop proggessive suspension springs in but maybe that's not the best thing?
I have a billet top clamp coming next week. I know I have to set the sag on the bike.
Also I have the slightes bit of clicking when I hit bumps particularly when cornering. Put's me off a bit.
