Wihtout a doubt Ebay is the best place to get your stuff. I got goldvalves for real cheap (~82 after shipping) because the guy listed them as for a 2003 RC51. I knew the part number I needed though and it matched.

I got my springs from Kiernan Racing. Great folks and they shipped the same day. Lowest price I found anywhere.

Oil I just bought locally and got 5wt fork oil.

I didn't use the Racetech standard setup, rather I got my setup information from Roger at Revolution Racing. I can't compare the performance to using racetech specs, but I couldn't be happier with the results.

Good luck trying to find Gold Valves on Ebay for our Storms.

If you do though, let me know as I want some!

Boo, check out www.speedwerks.com and get ahold of them. I only got the springs and fluid, but the prices were great and the people at speedwerks are really helpful. Tell em pickle from twowheelforum.com sent ya, might get a discount.

No. I have a 'hawk. That's what I was trying to explain earlier. If you know the part # then you can check all of the auctions. In this case the RC51 and the 'hawk use the same part, but since it was advertised for an RC51 noboday else bid on it.

The part for the hawk is a very common part number. I know that Aprilla for example uses the same one. That might make it easier to score cheap.
