| Didn't know if you guys knew or not but most of you who have roadraced the big bikes know who Thermosman is. He also does mini bikes as well. Just thought you all should know. Thermosman is the guy all the other suspension guys call when they cant solve the problem. He's in a league of his own.
Revalve stock shock for RR'g New shock spring for 185lb for RR'g New seals and fluid in shock Rework forks for RR'g and install emulators new .46 springs in forks new seals in forks. everything done and ready to bolt up was $600 including parts for my KX65. | |

| Didn't really get a break down but he quoted me $250 for the shock and spring so I would assume that the front end would be $350. You'ld have to call him and ask. He's a real nice guy and always willing to talk to you about the bike and different options. I should have everything back this weekend (depending on UPS) and hope to take it out and give it a try. | |

| Got the suspension back today and put it all back on this afternoon. FEELS GREAT!!!! Just pushing on it I like the feel a lot. Wheels and all went right on, thanks Walter for that. Mounted my Vee Rubber slicks also and everything is ready to go. I wont get a chance to ride and put it through its paces until tomorrow but here's how it looks now. | |

| if you didn't install new brake pads it will take a while untill they realy grab the new rotor. | |

| Well I took the bike out today and put it to work. Compared to my other kx which has a great deal more $$$ in suspension this bike is easily as good and only cost $600. I could not be happier, this bike handles awesome!!!! | |
