In this video I tell the story of a set of Progressive Suspension front fork springs for my KLR650. As with many things in Panama, mailing a simple package turned into a major headache. Things that were lost were found, and in the end it was all for naught.
The guys over at www.progressivesuspension.com/ are friends of the show. They make an excellent product. If you are feeling like it's time to upgrade your suspension they should be the first place you look.

i got Progressive Suspension front fork springs on my 2011 KLR 650. the company is awesome! the customer service is great. since they do not sell to the general public..you have to get it from one of the retailers. regardless...their product is awesome. I ride mostly dirt..and im a big guy. no more brake dive. the bike tracks a lot better compared to the stockers. one of the best upgrades along with the rear top gun 8.0kg spring.

@hondascoot No I just left the old ones in there. They are the same thing so I didn't see a need to use another set on this old bike.

WOW,What a great story my friend!

I always look forward to seeing new stuff from you! Your excursions to obscure and out of the way places are great! Have you ever discovered any ancient trade routes and have you ever run in to a Panama historian?

Watching your vids on iPad 2 video quality awesome

cool. My boyfriend has a KLR (with a ton of luggage!) I'll let him know that this might be a worthy upgrade to think about

@Crana Yeah the shipping thing is a nightmare. I love shopping online and having stuff magically show up at my doorstep.

@cynik45ACP It was a little spring that controls the shifting mechanism. It wasn't the Doohickey. Just took a long time to get the parts to do the job.

I did the same thing with the jets on my bike. The po said it was bone stock ,so I ordered a kit and when I got inside and pulled the jets they were the same

I have always heard good things about Progressive Suspension.

@1jbunceiii Yeah I know about slacking. I still have a Drift camera I need to review. So much technical stuff to go over I don't want to miss anything, but don't want to ramble on to long as well.

Oh, and they don't make anything for my bike (KLX250sf 2009). Ah well. I have to replace my leaky fork seals, so I thought maybe that would be a cool upgrade to do at the same time. NT8 also mentioned it. He has them on his KLR.

@hondascoot That is a good point, maybe I'll put them in.

I have those in my KLR. Seems to work fine. So you have four sets of progressive springs?

@MikeEpps72 8 лет назад

Looks like when you pulled the original ones out on the video they were in upside down. Did I see that right?

@84greenbear 12 лет назад

@halfthrottle How cool would that be!? Just be careful of bandito's hahaha! With what you may find you may have to double the suspension on your KLR, or get a trailer! Hmmm, trailer for a KLR? Think I'll have to do some checking on that! LOL, take care and may you and your family have a great holiday season!

@K9LLL I'll let you know if I decide to sell them.
