The plan for 2016 is to pull the 11K from out of hibernation and give it a bit of TLC.
Its currently running a short 750L swing arm and tired shock, Maxton front forks shimmed for racing (done in 1994 so not very compliant on the road)
5.5 inch rear rim.
Last time I rode it the back shock had lost most of its damping and it was quite "entertaining" at 100mph plus.
I have an 1100 M arm lined up and a new shiny Ohlins ready to bolt on.
I`ve been on one of Gareth Evans at Reactive suspensions courses and have a set of 750J forks that I`m going to have a go at fitting the shim stacks from into the 11K forks.
Head bearings will get a looking at too.
From memory I recall it said that the 11K frame was very similar to the 750J, and the 750J I had in did handle very well , just suffering from a lack of ground clearance with my younger more enthusiastic self on board.
Not sure how much effect the lower bars on the 750 had on the weight distribution and handling, being an old git I`m planning to leave the bars above the yokes.
Anyone any experience of improving the 11K ?
Any advice/comments/abuse welcomed.
