Fork or Shock done on 150R?

I was looking at feal suspension for my 150r suspension but can only afford either my front or rear to be valved for now, so which one should i do im not very experienced what would help me get better on the track and learn to hit some real jumps?

thats just what i would do.

i feel the affects of my forks more than my rear shock.

just make sure that your rear sag is set.

I wouldnt do either.It will feel really unbalanced if you do just one or the other.Either save up enough money and have them done at the same time or if your out of the weight range for the stock springs just buy the correct springs.That alone will make a WOLRD of difference.

Re: Fork or Shock done on 150R?

you guys approximately how much would it cost if i were to ship the fork and shock across the country, and back to have work done? what about just the fork?

An oil change and careful adjustment are going to be more than enough.

Spending a ton on upgraded legs won't make you as much faster as spending a day at a quality riding school, guaranteed
