    I presume you'll only be riding downhill on that?

    Well, built to enjoy the down hill (more), obviously have get up hill first, the new forks should be an improvement uphill too, previously 120mm tora's, the sektors are adjustable to 110mm plus lock out and lighter, in theory any way

    Very nice. How does it ride with the longer fork? I still haven't got around to buying a set of Sektors for my Trance yet.

    went out yesterday for the first time with the new forks.was only my local route so nothin to severe but some reasonable bits of down hill.
    The climbs were straight away noticably easier with the fork fully lowered an locked.
    Down hill the bike felt more composed an less nervous.did forget to switch the fork on the last downhil bit.
    The bike seamed to roll with less resistance to on the road too. Poss more to do with the new front wheel.
