Re: $2000 to spend on mods for an 850
#1 sounds like a great plan, but I might be personally more tempted to go with Koni adjustables instead. Then again, HD's might be better for cross... cross isn't my area of expertise. HD's also cost a bit less. Lucky from ARD has also been doing some N/A tuning lately, he has a really interesting ...

Re: $2000 to spend on mods for an 850

Re: $2000 to spend on mods for an 850
