[QUOTE="Bill Thomas, post: 10862, member: 485"] I don't agree , Only 37 people voted ! When I was racing in the early 80s my forks were a little worn and it was super to ride. On red arrow tyres it was the best. I understand how people feel, My own brother hardly uses the standard damper at all !! It's only after you have a big one you know just how bad it can be. I have had my twin since 1965, I have been in the club since 1970 I have ridden many miles with no trouble and in the early days I used to ride much too fast. I only ask that riders think about fitting a hydraulic s/damper. I spoke to a top club man about the new bike we built asking if it had one, he said no, I was worried it would go to someone who didn't know vins and maybe sue the club [/QUOTE]
