so how good is the stock suspension in the '02 zx12?
I've used race tech before on my '95 zx11 and the difference was night and day. I know the 12 handles much better than an 11, but does it handle all that much worse than a race tech suspension setup?

I can tell ya that my 12 was a whole new bike after Race Tech! Unless they made major strides forward, I'd say get the forks down to Race Tech as soon as you get home.

Ohlins, baby...No other choice! The remote preload adjustment is way cool.

An Ohlins rear shock is around $850. Race tech rebuilds the rear shock for around $400 or so I believe. The rebuild is better but not near the Ohlins. And the Ohlins comes with the quick adjustable pre-load.
I Highly reccomend the Ohlins shock with the race tech front forks.
