Motorcycle Factory Offroad Racing Kit Suspensions

When most riders talk performance the first thing they think of is POWER - but if you're smart, that's the last on the list. Shoving grunt into a chassis that can't cope builds a scary bucking bronco. First steps are basics - make sure your bike is properly maintained, clean, no leaks, fresh oil, good clutch setup. Remove any extra weight. Fit grippy tyres. You've got the perfect starting point! Quality suspension comes next & Teknik Motorsport are motorcycle suspension tuning experts.

When you see your favourite motocross star ripping around a stadium, their forks & shocks are exactly the same as these. The top enduro racers have the same front & rear too - anywhere there is an offroad podium - it will feature teams using factory kit suspensions. The biggest names in motorbike suspension, Kayaba & Showa, have racing departments that develop extra special parts & hand assemble them into bolt-on assemblies that are tuned just for you - your bike, your weight, your terrain.

These premium components feature exotic extra-hard low-friction coatings like Kashima, Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) and Rainbow Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) to get the most accurate damping possible with the least wear. They are highly tunable & finely adjustable for all riders on all tracks - with race proven internals. Consider mounting your fork legs with adjustable triple clamps too; you can tune your steering just as easily as your suspension for comfort & control.

We sell the pinnacle of replacement suspensions as complete assembled fork leg pairs or coilover shock absorbers ready to bolt in, as well as inner cartridge conversion sets to make your OEM WP forks work with the KYB or Showa oil cartridges - see their complete catalogues including racing parts.

Watching racing videos, do the winners look like they're being kicked around? That circuit star can lean further, without braking dive, sailing over cornering bumps that push you off line. That motocross hero hooks up on loosest dirt, turns quicker after landing jumps, floats over whoops that rattle you roughly. Are they more skilled? Maybe. But their motorbike is predictable & controlled, giving confidence to push grip further & time to concentrate on faster laps.

Tuned suspensions aren't just for the track though. Riding on potholed tarmac or offroad trail adventures improves too - a smooth ride, comfortable saddle no longer absorbing corrugations & vibration, longer endurance. Keeping safe tyre contact with the road under all conditions gives more grip & acceleration.

So now you've built up some skills & experienced riding a competent bike, how about setting up your gearing for better lap times & ridability? You're finally ready to turn up the wick with a screaming tuned engine & a blasting aftermarket muffler - but have a think about it first.
