Finally got WP5060 forks working awesome

[Swervin]

My bike had some WP5060 extreme conventional forks on it when I got the bike. They seemed to have already been re-valved by Race Tech but didn't perform that well until I got the correct for my weight springs in them.(I'm kind of heavy 250+ with gear)
WOW, more spring and less compression damping and of course a little more rebound.
I can't stress enough how much difference the right springs make!!!
Now it is soooo plush but never seems to bottom hard, changed whole personality of the bike!

While we are talking about suspension fix's I would like to give some credit to Synergy Seals for the awesome linkage bushing kit that I received from them for a very reasonable price! Very smooth action.

Now I need some Go-Pro video to post, I'll try and get some tomorrow.

Yeah, I know it's an older bike but I'm still happy about it!

Where did you find heavier springs? I have an older Husaberg with the WP 5060 Extreme forks and would like to up date my suspension for my fat butt! Looking for a WP spring for the rear also.

KTM also used these forks, try a Ebay search for KTM springs for a 98-99 EXC380 or something like that.

Cannon will make springs for anything if you have trouble finding the right spring or the exact rate you desire.
