I personally would tighten up the suspension a bit.

you dont need 07 fron forks, 05-06 work just fine and less expensive

oh **** i guess i was wrong, i was lookin at the prices between the 05-06 vs the 07 and the 07 was only like 20 bucks more where i was looking, best bet go to a dealer and ask what they charge

if 07 fits perfectly i guess go with those

Re: 180 wipz ?

stiffen your suspension all the way stiff and back out one click. same with preload.

suspension setup doesnt mean squat if you dont know how to do them.

keep the bp high and let the tail feel like its drifting out...if you keep it high enough you can control the steer and it will come around.

practice.
