Marzocchi Suspension

[Nacho2059]

Anyone have any experience with Marzocchi motorcycyle forks?  I have a couple of their bicycle forks, both dual and single crown but I havent seen anyone around here running one of their motorcycle forks.

They're a premium part. You'll find them as stock bits on some of the European bikes. The reason you don't see anyone here with them is because we ride Bandits, so we tend to be cheapskates. Those that do decide to swap something, usually swap a better fork from a GSXR because they're cheap and easy to find. The other thing is if someone's gonna pony up big money for an aftermarket fork, they usually go with Öhlins, which is considered the ultimate.

Marzocchi is Italy's equivalent to Japan's Showa and KYB.  Like Red said, they are only found on upper end Euro bikes.  On dirt bikes anyway, the Ms never get that good of review.  I think you would get the same results by sending your current forks to a place like Race Tech for a good revalve.  Ohlins is the way to go but they are $$, especially the forks.
