Well, I went riding today at my usual spot (Maumee State Forest). It provided a good comparison of the "before and after" effects of the fork oil change. WOW!!! my bike felt awesome. The whoops which usually caused me to bottom out previously were no issue now. It felt like I was riding more in the middle of the stroke and the forks would eat up everything.

Changing the fork oil will be a must on my "to-do" list each year. My bike felt so different that I plan to send both my fork and shock to Les @ LT-Racing for a complete teardown and rebuild this winter.

Hey Les, what do you typically charge for fork and shock rebuilds... of course part costs are additional. I will probably have you do some tweaking too just to make sure it is setup best for my weight. Please send me a PM if you don't want to post here. Thanks!
