09 suspension question
I thought I read somewhere that more travel can be had out of the front fork on the 09 + bikes by removing a spacer inside the cartridges and using a longer spring or stock spring spacer. Is there any truth to this? Anyone done it? I'd like to raise the ride height a bit. TIA

This can be done with almost any fork- but the forks will flex more. If you are looking to improve the performance- you would be better off with a good suspension guy doing a revalve and new springs.

The rear shock could be the same kind of deal between the two models but would require more work to get into the internals. That said, it would be the perfect time to do a Race Tech Gold Valve mod to really improve the rear suspension. Gold Valves front and rear really transformed my bike.

I will be be replacing springs and revalving. I've been doing my RR and MX bikes for years, I just want to know what to expect when I get in there. It's not extra travel that i'm looking for, it's the added ride height. Shorter links in the back will take care of that.
