    I did a search on this but didnt find exactly what I was looking for hence asking in here.
    Getting a vts shortly, should be cammed etc in time.
    Unsure of what to do suspension wise. Want a drop of either 45mm -50mm.
    On my vtr at the moment I have 35mm Gmax and cannot complain wiv the handling! So do I go for a gmax set up again? Then again I seen the Gmc 50mm springs? do different springs sit at different heights?Dont want to pay for changing the dampers so what is the best spring that I could get and at what prices.
    Cheers

    If you want to go down 50 then your best buying springs and dampers as the standard dampers won't last long at that height. I know with a full kit it depends what you're looking for as to what kit you buy, i.e. do you just want looks or handling? If it's looks then a cheap kit like Spax or Gmax will do but if it's handling and ride comfort then your best to go with a better brand, like Koni.

    Hope this helps
