Working on completing my bike before it gets nice enough to ride consistently hear in a month or so. Have been working on upgrading multiple aspects and suspension being one of them. Not looking to spend a ton of money to upgrade my suspension but just looking for a overall tighter and more comfortable ride. I just got done installing 13" Progressive 444 and have been pretty happy so far with them. Would have loved some really nice Ohlins but can't justify spending $1200 on some good Ohlins. I got 444's brand new for $410 so about $250 cheaper than works. I am wanting to do a budget upgrades to the front end. Here is my thoughts:
-Progressive Std Fork Springs - $65
-Amsoil Shock Therapy Oil - Not sure of weight looking at 10 or 15???
-SM or RSD Preload Adjusters - $150
-Fork Brace - looking at super brace or others.

Can I use Ricor Intiminators with this setup? Are they worth it? Looking for help choosing some parts for the front end but on a budget. Can't afford $900 for a K-Tech cartridge kit. I wish someone made a affordable budget cartridge kit.

 

I did the racetech springs and Intiminators nice upgrade much improved ride. Installation is pretty easy.

 

Is there much setup with the Intiminators? I really don't know a ton about them. What weight oil did you go with

 

10wt there is tuning with the racetech but you need to take them out to do so.

 

For another $100 or so you could have gone with Hagon Nitros. All good.Anything is better than stock imo.

 

I'm interested in this as well. There are so many threads on forks and shocks that it gets confusing.

 

Here's a great thread on a front end upgrade on a budget. This to date has been one of my best mods, I keep wanting to get a cartridge kit but the bike feels so good and grabs the road and bumps so confidently I can't really justify $1k on a cartridge kit when this setup cost around $500. It's turned into a long thread but there's a ton of really great info in there
