Hey all,
I've been searching the forums for a few hours, and haven't found any definitive advice for my front suspension question on my 2001 SXR 600.
It has an M-10 suspension on the rear, so it seems to really shift a lot of the weight to the front. This Summer, I'd like to go into the front end and upgrade it. I'd like to go to a higher-performance shock like an Ohlins, and get more travel out of it.
I've seen a few hints about turning brackets around, but that doesn't seem to be what I'm after.
What kind of advice do you have? Pics would really be appreciated if you have any!

Bummer. I was hoping for a few good ideas.
I haven't even read about a shock upgrade for this sled...maybe I'll go search for that specifically.

You could maybe go with ohlins from an apex, I think those might be longer and would bring the front up but you'll probably have to make some brackets to mount them. I love the ohlins, just put them on both of my sleds and they ride much smoother.

Thanks shaggyzr2, that'll be a good starting point for me to look into.
