For the last 6 months, ive been lucky enough to have a job which allows me to travel - a lot.

This means an average of 600 miles a week, and carrying a lot more luggage than i used to - see below



I've done 9,000 miles in 5 months. Now at just over 26,000 miles on a 2013 bike!


I changed my front fork springs for Hyperpro which was a great feeling, but since then I think my head bearings are going again, or my front tyre is a bit crap. New tyre in the post and I'm going to look at my bearings tomorrow.


It would seem something at the rear is on the way out.
My seat feels flat and horrible, the bike seems to see-saw a lot when loaded, I have 2 clicks to go for full pre-load and it still doesn't feel right.

So my current options are:
[*] Get the original Sachs shock serviced - �200
[*] Get a Hyperpro spring for the rear - �90
[*] Get a Touratech or Ohlins suspension kit - �900 + fitting
[*] Get a new seat - �300

What do I do? What's worth it?

Any suspension geeks I can come and talk to? Maybe try your bike out and see what I'm missing.

Anywhere in UK, I travel a lot!
Any feedback on your experiences would be appreciated.

Cheers, Steve.
