    As the title says really Where to buy aftermarket forks/suspension from?

    Seems straightforward to find rear shocks being sold for scoots but not so much front forks I'm finding none

    Looking for them to fit a Zip

    Post some links if you could recomend any places

    Cheers

    Looking to see whats on offer or what can be modified to suit with machining etc.

    Are sp front ends a straigt swap? If so I may consider them.

    Yea would have thought it did with them being hub mounted fronts, what suspension setup is preffered amongst most meaning what shock do most people upgrade to? :)

    its biturbo ones that everyone goes on zips front and back as they are reasonable in price , there is many more like stage 6 , malossi , polini, yss but they are kinda pricey :)

    Cool no probs not too fussed about price as some high end stuff isn't always worth its price for everyday ridimg, doing my research before I set my mind on parts to buy also gives me chance to get peoples opinion/experiances on certain products and how they find them day to day

    Cheers :)

    Cheers opens my options up more for front suspension, Fairly soon I'll be putting together a spec list for all the bits (engine, bodywork, electical & engine) I'll be buying but I'll be putting the list up so if peeps can offer better products to buy for the ones I've selected, I'm using my head before blowing a huge wedge on the wrong part., that said I've used my head on selecting the correct parts just a case of seeing if people agree :)

    Cheers Jonny

    It's a bit diffrent to the regular projects as its a 4T I'm gonna be playing with and I know not a lot of people mess with these as its more straightforward to tune a 2T with whats out there and works out cheaper.

    I know its not gonna be up there with its 2T equvilant but I just fancy doing somthing diffrent for fun more than out else although a lot of the parts transmission wise will be shared with it's 2T counterparts so with that area is where I'll be looking to see what peoples thoughts are :)
