Any recommendations for a good street bike fork? Its going on a Rocky Mountain Flow. Right now I have a Fox Vanilla 125R, and while a great fork, just not suited for the application.

Just looking for what would be a good fork, Spam is welcome, PM me

Sherman Jumper/Gold Label. I would go for the Jumper, there are a few on e-bay.

How do you do that?

Shouldn't you be getting a lens for your Cannon instead?

Or not. Stances are the biggest pieces of crap ever. Stay far away.

They break if you look at them the wrong way.

Wow!! You Rule! How do you stiffen it up a bit too? Just change the oil viscosity, or is there another way?

Springs will firm things up. I call BS that oil makes things stiffer. It just slows things down.

 

[Dirtbike]

If it is just going to be a jump fork, and you dont really care about small bump performance as much, you can go with a heavier weight oil, temporarily. The real way to solve the problem is to just order the springs.

Or stick some spacers in with the springs... Ghetto, but it works real good.

Loco is right about oil weight.
