Dirt bike fork setup


















Stock Honda steering dampers come with an under-damped feel with a small amount of adjustability. To help the steering damper become more effective and predictable, Race Tech has developed a Steering Damper Gold Valve Kit to increase damper performance and adjustability. The kit comes with instructions for 3 settings: soft, standard and hard. The stock 16mm shock shafts found on most modern stock shocks are at risk of bending under the extreme circumstances of modern Supercross, Arenacross and Freestyle competition.

This provides a more free initial movement for less harshness. These Stainless Steel Compression Posts replace the stock aluminum units. The stock units are at risk of bending with the extremely agressive setups required for modern Supercross, Arenacross, and Freestyle competition. Dual-Chamber Pressure Springs are there to prevent cavitation.

Pressure spring-rates need to match stiffer valving used for Supercross and outdoor motocross conditions. Proper rate Pressure Springs provide a consistent feel and smoother cornering. Learn More Many of these caps provide more nitrogen volume and are easy to service. Add increased bottoming resistance and damping control on the second half of the stroke.

Race Tech has two variations, one for Motocross and one for Supercross to control damping and prevent from blowing through the stroke. These bottoming separators are reversable to provide two positions of engagement with 20mm of difference. Get the jump on your competition straight out of the gate with a double-button Race Tech Holeshot Device.

The double button design provides an optimal setting for varying soil conditions without the hassle of changing fork guards or re-mounting your starting device. The large latching area makes for easy setting while a machined lip and extra large stainless screws keep the device securely in place. MotoStands are injection molded, light-weight, and the strongest stands on the market holding over lbs.

Each stand comes equipped with a tough non-slip rubber top and custom Race Tech decal kit. Simply bolt Race Tech Fork Tanks on for a significant improvement on square edge bumps for MX and Enduro without sacrificing bottoming resistance.

Fully adjustable, for every terrain, the Air Control System allows the effective oil level to automatically adjust for big hits, braking bumps and G- outs. Great for motocross and off-road. You will be impressed! Kit comes with mounting brackets and adapters. If you are looking to replace a part on your WP forks or shock, Race Tech has you covered. As an Authorized WP Center, Race Tech can provide you with an individual piece versus having to purchase a whole new component.

We can even install the replacement for you! Give us a call at Coatings can drastically reduce friction to provide a smooth and consistent feel, as well as provide an excellent resistance to wear. DLC2 is the best of the best when it comes to coatings. Applied to the exterior of the chrome tubes, it is extremely hard and slippery.

Hard anodizing is a treatment for aluminum surfaces only. Many of today's stock forks come with the aluminum outer tubes hard anodized from the factory; however, the coating is many times very thin - wearing through in less than 10 hours of riding.

Once worn, bushings ride on soft aluminum creating friction and an inconsistent feel. We can rebuild and revalve Works Performance shocks. We have many parts like Shaft Seals and Bladder Upgrades shown.

Call us. Go along with Chad Reed to Moto40 where he is out to get Tate to corner smoother and in turn faster.

We put it to the test to find out. Expectations are definitely high! Steg Pegz are an effective way to take pressure of arms by locking your body forward under acceleration. This reduces arm pump and rider fatigue. The general rule is mm of rider sag. In sandy whooped out conditions, harder springs will optimise your riding experience. The goal is to have the front-end ride higher in the stroke than normal so the bike can find its own way around the track without feeling twitchy or nervous.

The spring works as the primary support to hold the weight of the bike and also absorbs the impact of rode while you are riding. While the primary role of the damper is to slow the compression of the spring and also to maintain how fast the spring returns to its normal position after performing its function.

Thus it is clear that only spring is not enough in any suspension as without damper the bike would continue to bob up and down. The main purpose of both these crucial parts is to make sure that you attain a stable balance between compression and rebound damping that will make it a little bit easy to handle your bike.

As mention before setting up dirt bikes suspension for enduro is the easiest process, the following step-by-step guide will further help you do it. The first step is to adjust the bike according to your physique. Set the bike according to your height and weight, the logic behind this is that taller people need to buy bikes with bigger frames.

So you have to adjust your dirt bike according to you too since it only comes in one frame or size but it can be later adjusted as you desire.

You need to set up the sag of your dirt bike before riding it. Do not take it for granted if it has been set last month, it still needs few adjustments. As it is one of the crucial and important steps for suspension. Set the sag on shock, you will find later how useful it proved. Tuning your dirt bike requires a little more effort than just turning a couple of screws. A method you can use to dial in your fork is by adjusting the weight and height of oil. Thus, adjusting your fork oil height will have an effect on the air space in the fork, while on the other hand, it changes the damping elements in the second half of the suspension travel.

For your information, by adding oil you will stiffen the fork and increase the resistance on the bottom, and vise-versa, removing oil will soften the fork. In practice, the fork oil can be added through the air bleeder using a small syringe. Continuing now to the rear part, make sure that you have the proper rate spring that holds up the rider and the bike.

As it is common, most bikes are more suitable with mm of sag with the rider on. Nonetheless, after getting the rider sag, what you should do is check the static sag that the bike has without the rider. I have been there, and I know how frustrating it can be not knowing how to adjust the dirt bike suspension. Even though you can do this alone, to avoid problems, I recommend you set the sag with a friend, two people are always better for this process.

Place the dirt bike on a stand, leave no wheels on the ground, and start measuring from the middle of the rear axle to a fixed point.
