Street Bike Geometry Triple Clamps for Suzuki DRZ400SM
These billet triple clamps for the Suzuki DRZ400SM give more street bike geometry and less dirt, basically steeper rake and longer trail. With the stock DRZ set up there's a fine line between getting it to turn quickly and high speed/freeway stability, these clamps improve both. A lot of riders install a steering damper to improve stability but this just slows steering even more. With these clamps I've seen 95mph (professional rider, closed course) without the slightest nervousness and enjoyed going up China Grade (very nasty goat trail) so much I went round to do it again.
I've spent a lot of time getting the design right to make them as 'plug and play' as possible. I've even included a mount for a Scotts steering damper for those who feel the need. We've had 10 sets made up and there's a choice of black or clear anodized.

Ducati 620 Mulitistrada Fork Conversion
A common complaint about the front forks on the Multistrada 620 and the new Monster 696 is that they are both wallowy and harsh. This is due to soft springs and poor high-speed damping. Unfortunately the stock internals aren't rebuildable so a revalve isn't an option. We have found that with some modifications we can use the cartridges out of the Showa forks from the Suzuki GSXR750. We revalve and respring the cartridges to suit the Multistrada and Monster with excellent results. Cost for this conversion includes a set of used cartridges. If you want to supply your own cartridges it will be $200 less and another $50 less for loose forks.
- Supply and modify GSXR cartridges
- Race Tech Gold Valves
- Race Tech fork springs
- Fork oil
- Revalve cartridges and install (on bike)
- Total - $800
Penske rear shocks are also available for the Multistrada
Honda XR650 CRF Front End Conversion Bearing
Installing the Honda CRF450 or 250 front end into the XR650L or XR650R is a very popular upgrade. The steering stem is different between the XR and CRF's but with this modified bearing you are able to use the stock CRF stem and install it straight into the XR650. You'll need one of the bearings to install in the XR650R and two of them for the XR650L. We can also supply a spacer kit to use the XR650 front wheel in the CRF forks. At this time we do not have a brake caliper relocation bracket.
XR/CRF bearings - $60 each
Wheel spacer set - $100
