As for the forks ... I have only ridden a demo bike with the standard forks and that was only a brief ride. I really can't compare based on that short ride. Cheers

Have you ridden a standard bike (MT01) as well as the SP ? If so, do the ohlins make for a better ride
Muttaburra and Jota, if in Omeo Vic be sure to let me know. Muttaburra is in q/land but your plate is nsw.
Mark D on old forum in Albury had one. Think that was for sale not long back, either of you------------?
The standard forks are beaut to work on too. I have ohlins rear and ohlins springs front. Damping cant be all that different, it was pretty good standard.
For what it is worth I have said in past that higher tyre pressures were best for the MT but must say have changed my mind recently and am running more mid 30lbs now. I mention this because the tyre pressure itself make a huge difference to ride comfort.
Not saying the ohlins forks arent just fantastic but not in bang for buck.
If either of you buy amcn you will have seen my recent letter and the response about comparing the 01(my stage 4) with mt10(long term test bike).
Havent heard from them but would be good if they did. For giggles anyway ;D

G'day - 1 of only 2 in the Country? - I have 1 of only 4 in Australia and there's 2 in New Zealand I would have thought there were more than 2 in the UK however
Wouldn’t be surprised if most of the original uk allocation ended up in Germany as it’s so easy to move them around Europe.

Do the Ohlins forks make much of a difference to the ride?
Interesting question, I would like to know if any SP owners would care to comment

Think they were only £11,500 when they came out

Including quickshifter.... ::)
Find myself asking whether the Ohlins forks are really worth £3-4K.
;D
