New sub from Philippines ❤😊

As a former tyre service owner and motorcycle rider I used to use the same fluid as you would use to prepare for a patch for other tyre repair but I have never seen anybody else bother good tip well done Terry

That was fantastic. Thank you.

Great video Terry. Very informative. I have a resto-modded 1981 Honda CB900 Bol d’Or. Is there much scope to tune the springing and damping on the non adjustable Ohlins HO140 I have installed?

Hi Terry, great video! I hope you could answer one question I have. Does just removing the seal and o-ring improve the fork without any additional change? I have a 701 Enduro and would love to know if this simple and free change will already improve things without the need to change anything else. Thanks!

Average white rider 😎Europe is for KTM

You do an excellent job translating the mechanical into understable concepts. I have more confidence now and will do more change and effect trials.

Maximum propulsion ✔️

Just like on my Mountain bike forks. brilliant idea, should be standard treatment from the factory.

If Russell Crowe did suspension tuning…

Are you using a dvs setting for the shim stacks on these or is it a shim stack you've developed? Just curious. I'm a RT dealer so access to those settings is not a problem.

Best explanation ever!

Recommended upgrades to a honda 300L? Thanks for all the understandable knowledge blasts.

I was under the impression that wd40 was formulated in hell and provided by the devil to all the quick fixers in the world? Turns to varnish in most of the parts I have had to tear down and clean out. Maybe time for a hydraulic piston and seal conditioner product? Caterpillar makes a hydro anti friction additive and seal conditioner.

I have 2020 husqvarna te300i. The forks sticker says Wp xplor oc open cartridge. The manual says 5548 fork type. Is this fork considered to be a Wp xplor 48 type fork? Your expertise would be greatly appreciated. Also your video's are excellent. Thanks Steve Johnson

Great PSA! Riders come in so many different sizes I'm surprised bikes don't. Especially with the rise of hard enduro, getting a foot down can save energy and avoid bruises. I would appreciate hearing your thoughts on lower seats and lower bars/mounts. Thanks for the insight!

100% correct completely agree

And that doesn't even get into the fact that changing the pull rid length changes the rising rate in the linkage and the bike doesn't even handle anything like it was designed to.

I appreciate this video and you sharing your knowledge. I have the Race Tech single spring conversion and I am trying to ascertain if there is a bottoming cone that could be purchased and added to this set up. I have worked with my local tuner and we have got my fork working very nicely but it still lacks bottoming resistance. It doesn’t seem to ramp up quite quick enough toward the end of the stroke.

Great informative video as always Terry. I’m running a straight 69Nm spring currently, on a revalved shock and bladder kit. (24exc300) - would you recommend 69/72/75 for the progressive spring? Thanks Jez

Hi, thank you for this great content. Is this rebound issue fixed on 2025 models? How much did you increase the hole?

HMM AFTER EACH TIME THE RIDER WENT OUT THEN YOU MADE A ADJUSTMENT AS PER RIDER EXPLAINED. YOU MADE ADJUSTMENT? DID YOU SOLEY ADJUST THE REBOUND HARDER OR SOFTER. ALL. I HEARD WAS SAG ADJUSTMENT?

As someone who came to riding long-travel suspension motorcycles at an advanced age, having last ridden off road 45 years prior, I have struggled to figure out my suspension settings for years. I finally used pavement features (ride a dual-sport), like sharp edged bumps, drop-offs, pavement joints, and potholes, to figure out what i was feeling. I also found that riding position must be perfect to get consistent results from changes. I then experimented with settings singularly and noted differences, and then together until I finally got it tuned. My bikes compression dampening also affect compression, so have to give to one and take from the other. This is all for the rear, as i found the front much easier to decipher and adjust. You could have done this is two minutes. BUT, I feel i much better understand my suspension system from my experience and time spent analyzing it myself even though i am first seeing this video and agree with everything you said. My understanding is organic, and your logic can back it up. I can now easily feel the differences a single click makes on any setting. Using your logic would have saved me time but one still have to have a feel for it to do it properly. other videos I have watched over the years on the subject just clouded all my perceptions.

How do you adjust preloaded on these? Has to come apart right?

Awesome video with tons of info. I’ve heard good things about the JBI pro perch and the Enzo Technica spring tube upgrades. Do you have any insight on these? And also is the gold valve only needed for the compression not on the rebound?

Brilliant straightforward no nonsense explanation! Thanks mate!

Do you have the enhance bottoming cone for the WP cone valve kit for a GAS GAS 65 2024 or will it even be an improvement on the cone valve kit forks? ❤🙏🇺🇸

Are they coming out with a XR Kit 3.0 version for KYB? Should I wait for a XR Kit 3.0?

Wow what a great overview. I've never heard how amount of sag related to a riders height before. One question, what adjustment is best to prevent harsh bottom outs on jump landings. I have the correct spring for my weight and oil in the suspension. Am I correct that you would close or turn in your high speed compression a bit? Ankles are suffering...Thanks

I have a 2017 PDS with bladder and progressive spring. Is there a rebound separation valve for older Xplor shocks?

This information is invaluable. Thank you!

2024 KTM 250 XC, with the CC fork, what would you recommend as the best bang for buck upgrade? This kit or something else like gold valves etc? What would you do with the rear shock to suit? Thanks.

Hey these are great videos? Can you clarify if I have a 2021 yz250f that has the pistons drilled from factory can I still remove the top oring for less friction? Or best not to? Thanks for the videos!

Love it. Very technical information while still using the word "shit" 😂

How can I get in contact with you to discuss valve dampening changes after doing these modifications? I have 4cs forks with race tech gold valves on 2016 350sxf. 170lb rider

Your video's are just so amazing. Can you do a tuning video on the 2023 ktm 250 xc line in particular the issue with the shock and the faster shaft speeds and if you have any particular mods for the compression side that you like with or without a spring conversion. Great vids!!!!

Is that rear subframe bent or is it the camera angle.

Hi Terry, i noticed when rebuilding my YZ250 KYB how much influence the rebound damping had on the compression damping. If we set rear compression, then rebound, should we then re-check compression again ?

Great tip sir

Great video Terry, very informative !

At the track you added more preload but didn't say what the final numbers were. That would have been good to know vs the shop measurements.

Why did you mute the audio when describing what you did with the high and low speed damping adjustments?

The fueling sounds too rich off the bottom. (Edit: I didn't watch the whole clip before adding that comment. You actually identified the fueling issue at the end of the clip. Sorry.)

It sounds like Western Sydney International Airport is already open out there. 🙃

Common believe is that the 20mm ports of the fork are too small for an adventure rider with a good pace. I installed a new cartridge with 25mm ports and installed a midvalve that probably needs further tuning. Looking forward to your analysis of the fork. Keep up with the great work!!

So what is the best front cartridge you would suggest for my 2024 Road Glide ? . Thanks

Am I correct in thinking this upgrade to the Xplor fork essentially makes them the same as the old open cartridge forks as fitted to my 2009 EXC 200? Does the upgraded Xplor fork work better than the old open cartridge stuff?

Mate you literally said nothing useful to actual riders. “Do this, do that, yes is it ok” the sort of thing a lecturer will tell you in the hall when you ask him a question, noice but nothing specific. If when you challenged everyone at the beginning to beat this level of knowledge and quality, then I am sure you will be unbeatable as you covered everything so broadly that anything to suspension is related but nothing actually specific. We all know we need to test the suspension, we all know we need a new tire and piston and a crew like a factory riders, but we dont have the time to do all this because we are not. If you want to be useful just say how to make something better, not be as generic as a non-rider talking about how to ride, from watching videos here. Keep your trading secrets locked and maybe setup your bike only, but noone elses in fear of losing m your knowhow.

Pure gold... Thank You!

I have the race tech book, but it was great to hear an explanation, thanks 👍. I'm riding a 2013 hd sportster as a dirt bike. Ohlins on the back 16". And WP on the front. Track and rack were very similar to my ktm 640adv. But the sportster has a shorter swing arm. Q: can you compensate for swing arm or force centre with sag in this case, if so higher or lower % sag ? (I keep up with a lot of adv riders, but it doesn't like chopping the throttle. If getting hairy neutral or slit throttle with balanced breaking works best. Then get back on it.)
