Hey guys
I just picked up a dedicated ninja300 race bike. My weight usually fluctuates between ~150-160lbs without any gear. At the track yesterday I had a pro take a look at my suspension (both front and back have aftermarket bits in them that the previous rider installed), and he said that it is way too stiff for me and that I need a new rear shock (currently have a 9mn shock for the rear, he suggests 7.5nm), and front suspension too.
So I've already emailed Elka suspension to ask what shock I should use for the rear (interestingly the rear has an elka suspension but the shock is actually from Ohlins lol), and now I'm looking for some advice on what brand to go with in the front. All I know is that the front has aftermarket emulators and springs, but I dont know what rating nor brand they are
also how straightforward is it to replace the rear shock and install new springs/emulators in the front? i dont have a lot of experiencing wrenching, but if its not a super complicated job I'm happy to learn how to do it myself.
