Be cool. If you are experiencing shock fade, this is the answer. Converts the stock piston set-up to a bladder with finned reservoir. This upgrade drastically reduces heat by eliminating the piston movement inside the stock reservoir. If you are racing/riding for more than 30 minutes at a time, more than likely your shock is overheating and losing damping. Available when sending your shock in for modification or service. Fits all KTM shocks from 2003-2010.

For those who are verticaly challenged, Dicks Racing has the answer. Shortened suspension. As expected, we do it right. Special Travel limiting spacers are installed in your forks and shock, complete revalve service is performed, springs are shortened, and then reassembled with fresh oil. The most common height reductions are (1") (1-1/2") ( 2"). The reduction can be reversed when it comes time to sell it, no problem.

This option (#3) utilizes the FBS (free bleed system) which works great for true off-road conditions. This set-up includes high flow compression pistons, complete revalving, FBS mods, and bladder refill to the proper setting. Ridiculous amounts of testing went into these mods to insure the best possible results. Please keep in mind that forks and shock need to work together and should be modified at the same time if possible.

Air Bleeders $35.00
These "one-touch" buttons can be installed in any type of forks.

Upper Fork Guards $30.00
These are made of Hi-Impact plastic and protect your forks from rock abuse. Installation is simple; just snap in place.

07-09 KTM fork adjusters $35.00
Get rid of those hard to use stockers and try these orange aluminum versions. 2 different types, for use with or without air bleeders.

03-09 KTM Reservoir/Bladder Kit $79 - $179
Due to the heat generated by the rapid movement of the reservoir piston, shock fade occurs. We now have an affordable solution to the problem.

Spring Glides $99 - fits all makes
When compressed, springs want to twist and bind. These glides fight that problem and provide smoother action.

A seperate service from revalving. All wear items are replaced and carefully reassembled. $25 + Parts with revalve service / $125 + Parts (rebuild only)

 When it comes to making your shock work better, trust Dicks Racing to do it right the first time. We have over 30 years of experience and do the testing required to achieve the best possible results. Your shock is taken apart, cleaned and revalved for your terrain and skill level. The correct spring rate is determined and matched rebound valving is installed. All air is removed from the system, which is absolutely critical for consistent/correct performance, and then pressurized with nitrogen to proper specs.

This is a separate service from revalving. Rebuilding involves replacing leaking seals, worn out bushings and repairing damaged tubes.

$45 + Parts when done with above modifications / $95 + Parts (rebuild only)

Forks are completely disassembled, cleaned and revalved to match your terrain and skill level. The correct springs and rebound valving are installed for your weight and filled with industry-leading oil to the optimum height. No matter what you ride, we have proven/tested settings that are guaranteed to keep you satisfied. Beware of pretenders, trust Dicks Racing to deliver results you can count on. Does not include rebuild ($45 extra + parts)

This option (#2) is designed exclusively for the closed chamber forks. The result of countless hours of testing, you can expect the ultimate in performance. Includes complete revalving of internals along with custom made high flow pistons (HFP) that meter the perfect amount of oil. This set-up works great for those that ride WORCS type events, MX, or terrain with jumps/g-outs.

This option (#3) labeled "APS" is a completely different design than current systems being used. The name refers to Advanced Progressive System which allows for multiple rates of compression damping. Super plush initial travel, yet gradually stiffer through the stroke with incredible resistance to bottoming. Of the 3 options for KTM open chamber forks, this set-up has the most range and does everything well. The end result is superior performance that utilizes three separate compression adjusters (low, mid and high) and one rebound adjuster. This is the choice of serious trail riders and racers alike. Standard Revalve is Good, Revalve with HFP pistons is Better, APS is Best.
