Title: fork extension
Post by woodrt66 on 02/04/09 at 09:22:59

Billski states they'll made 4" extensions for us if we get 10 orders. What do ya think? They get 80 bucks for pair for Hondas so I'm guessing in that ballpark.

Sorry, If this is an extension of some other thread... and I don't know what all has been said: But $80 for some slugs is no deal when Frank's will make you a first class +4" set of tubes for a bit over $100 last I checked. No minimum order. Good people with a 40+ year reputation.

I know my bike handles pretty darn good with +4" and no change to the stock 35º rake. Actual trail works out to about 6"; which is just inside the very conservative "acceptable limits."

Oh... I highly recommend a fork brace on the Savage, extended tubes or not; but especially with the longer tubes!

Regards,

John

not to mention fork slugs are dangerous.
