Has anyone considered changing the front forks to a pair that offers both rebound and dampening? Maybe like from a GSXR? I've adjusted my rebound down to 1 line from about 4 lines, and I'm still not real happy with the front suspension. Where my other bikes just roll smoothly along, the Suzuki feels every little bump and translates that into my wrists and forearms, making for a more tiring ride. It is not "smooth" but rather bumpy (not sure what descriptive word to use here). My Honda 800 Interceptor is way more comfortable on the road in terms of suspension.
Any suggestions?

I've considered it but haven't dove in yet. It's on my list of things to research.

The adjustrment on the forks is spring preload only. There is no compression or rebound damping adjustments I'm interested in how this turns out. It would be great if it was just a straight fork swap and we're able to use the original triples, axle and brakes etc. I've swapped RMZ forks on my DR650 and had to change the triples, get an extention welded to the caliper adapter, turn a threaded bushing so that I could use the origanal axle and wheel and ordered custom length speedometer cable and brake line. Knowing what i do now, I'd just get stiffer springs and drop in adjustible cartridges for the dr650 at a cost of about $400CAD. Unfortunatly the only cartridges I've found for our bikes are expensive $1000CAD.

I just got my suspension udgraded. I didn't replace the forks or rear setup just the springs. Over all the setup is way stiffer. So far I've noticed better acceleration and tighter turning. Will get a better feel this weekend when I actually go riding.
Total setup cost only $328 Should have cost more but they cut me a break because of some set backs. They had my bike for 3.5 weeks.

I've seen that thing before what a monster. That would be great to have gixxer suspension on our bikes.
