fork overhaul vs. fork replacement?
#1
I'm a bit torn about my upcoming suspension upgrades and wanted to see if anybody could offer cogent advice. I'd initially planned to follow in some others footsteps and upgrade my front forks using the '17 cb1100 set since they bolt right on with no issues. However, It was posed to me that I should just change to upgraded springs and change the oil and it would achieve equivalent results after some adjustments. Is this true? For what reason would somebody replace the entire fork if this was an option? what else can i do to improve my front suspension without replacing it? primarily i'm interested in dampening on country roads and corner stability.
