Honda's CRF300L trail bike can make an awesome offroad machine, once you have sorted the overly soft, nonadjustable suspension at the front and back.
We fit a KTech RazorR Lite rear shock with rebound and preload adjustment.
And take the bike to suspension expert James Young at FTR Suspension so he can strip the forks down, take a good look inside and fit the full 20 IDS KTech kit which has adjustable compression and rebound damping, as well as external preload adjustment.
James gives a masterclass in offroad suspension how it works, how to set it up and what to look for. And despite the bike still running trail tyres, MotoHead's Dave Willet gives the new suspension a test to see how much improvement it has made.
