Shocks and seats

Eroyle · 09-28-2022, 11:03 AM

Hello, I have an EGL A15. Would love to get adjustable front shocks and a comfortable seat. Anyone know where I can find a place to buy? Where I bought the bike only sells OEM products.

Have you dumped the stock fork oil, and checked the shims that you have now.

Most China bikes come from the factory with mystery oil in the fork tubes and seldom the same amount, or the correct amount, in each tube.

They also come with preload shims of mysterious length and durability.

If you tune the forks you have you may be surprised at the increase in performance you get for your effort.

You should also take note that the Honda CRF300 does not come from the factory with adjustable front forks. You can buy three of yours for one of them!

As for the seat??? No idea! Try a chunk of jell foam and duct tape.

"Suspension: Front: 51/54-810mm inverted/upside down

Rear shock: 450mm damping shock with linkage"

Here's the specs for your suspension. Next, how much are your willing to pay? Good adjustable forks aren't cheap. The little bit of looking I've done netted a few used fork sets that will need a rebuild.
