  1. I read somewhere that cranking up the preload and rebound damping can stop it getting out of shape when you're pushing it.

  2. "The only thing I would like is better quality suspension to allow more adjustments ."

    Well, id say that's down to your wallet as theres quite a few options available...

  4. Nah....you could get a second hand ohlins for a about 400 quid and a set of springs for the front for a couple of hundred....personally id see if nitron do a rear shock for yours as when I changed the stock ohlins on my rsv4 factory to a nitron race pro I could feel the difference immediately...

  5. I've looked and looked for an Ohlins but nothing yet. Not considered a Nitron but maybe I should
    It is still booked to go into MCT at Stowmarket for a tweak as well.

  10. I think im ready to take the 821 hyperstrada route. It will either suit me or not.

    Some folk say suspension is a bit cack pushing on.....but a set of decent springs up front will help a lot ?

  11. Nitron have just announced a cartridge kit... May fit... I'm an advocate of nitron. Use them wherever I can...

  14. Job done, got an ok deal on the last batch 821.

    Register in Jan, no point now really. As much as Id like to.

    It will either be a monumental **k up selling the pani or I will like the hyper.

    Just looking for a change, so not spending ages with the same bike now going forward.

    So many dukes, so little time !



    @comfysofa will defo look into the Nitron springs up front.

  16. I have to agree.... It's a bit lad logic but if you have 2 then you're less likely to sell the other for a stupid price...

  18. Actually just to add when me and Simon T were on the test ride 821 he was on had ohlins internals on the front so that's an option...
