Read about some of our Featured Bikes below to learn more about motorbike suspension and our capabilities.
Aprilia Tuareg 660
It feels well built and looks great. Lovely plush suspension on the showroom floor, but it falls apart when you get rougher with it. The suspension thinks it is a road bike, not an offroad one.

BMW F800GS
Great choice for an Adventure bike that gobbles up highway KM too. The suspension is a bit of a let down though, but we can sort that out for you.
Read more
BMW G650X (All)
The G650 range includes the X Challenge, X Country and X Moto. They all share the same platform but vary slightly. They have become something of a cult bike, more popular since production ceased.

CFMoto 450MT
Under 10 thousand dollarydoos, with factory KYB adjustable suspension!? These cheap little adventure bikes have features you normally only see at twice the price. Yes, corners have been cut, but our parts un-cut them.
Read more
Ducati Desert X
Is it the Ultimate Adventure Bike? Ducati certainly seems to think so. Endless power, amazing tech and rugged construction meet a pretty lazy suspension spec.

Honda CRF1000/1100L and ATAS Africa Twin
We upgrade more Africa Twins than any other bike, and Aussies buy more than 400 a year. It's a popular bike that responds really well to a little tweaking.
Read more
Honda CRF300L and Rally
Little lightweight adventure bikes are a big deal now. With Honda reliability behind it, and some suspension tweaking, this small wonder can be seriously capable on and off road.
Read more
Honda CRF450X
Super reliable, unchanged for almost a decade. Well, almost unchanged. Is it really that good?
Read more
Honda XL750 TransAlp
The Trans Alp is back! This touring machine looks mean with all that protection and aggressive lines. It's fine on the street, but just begging for the extra tuning needed for proper adventures.
Read more
Honda XR650R
We know this bike better than anyone, having recieved the first one into Australia in 2000 with Ballards and building engines and suspension for GHR Honda from 2001-2004.
Read more
Husqvarna 701
The 701 was different to the KTM 690 from 2016-2020. From 2020 on the suspension is shared with the 690R
Read more
Kawasaki KLR650
Tough and reliable, the killer KLR is built like the pyramids. But that is also part of its problem, because those good old, reliable damper rod forks are very last century. They can be made to feel a whole lot more stable and gentle on the arms.
Read more
Kawasaki KX250F
Teknik Motorsport actually raced these in the Pro Lite National MX Series throughout 2006. It's been a while since then, but we keep up to date on them.
Read more
KTM 1090 / 1190R Adventure
KTM had some issues with the 1190 Adventure's rear. The dyno shows lumps and bumps where there shouldn't be. Not to worry though, we finished it off for them. Comparable to suspension 'kits" that cost as much as five thousand Australian dollars.
Read more
KTM 690R and Enduro
The 690 can do such a wide range of motorcycling tasks it's hard to pin it down to one.
Read more
KTM 950 and 990
KTM's Dakar history all went into this big and capable offroader. They changed their minds about ground clearance sometimes, and so can you.
Read more
KTM EXC & EXC-E & EXC-F
WP Suspension's PDS shock needs the right spring to work well. We did heaps of development for them, and now we have almost double the number of progressive rates and more linear rates available than anyone else.
Read more
KTM LC4 620/640 & 625 SXC
These bikes have given KTM endless enduro wins worldwide. They also make a fantastic adventure bike.
Read more
Suzuki DL1000 VStrom 2014+
The old DL1000 got a big overhaul in 2014, and it's better than the old one. But it is terrifyingly under-damped and wiggles around when pushed. We've tweaked it into something seriously confidence inspiring.
Read more
Suzuki DR650SE 1996 on
A Teknik favorite. We work on more DR's than you can imagine, and we know exactly how to make them do what you want.
Read more
Suzuki DRZ400
The Suzuki DRZ 400 has been a reliable workhorse since 2000 when it was introduced. It's a very reliable motorcycle for a commuter, trail bike or as an adventure bike! We offer a special suspension package.
Read more
SWM RS650R
A special Italian oddball built out of bits from several other euro bikes, but it can be made to work harmoniously and cope with Aussie conditions.
Read more
Triumph Tiger 1050
Your big soft Tiger could use more bite. With some tuning they can stop feeling bouncy, furry and floaty and turn into something more balanced & solid.
Read more
Yamaha MT09 / Tracer TRGT / XSR900
The MT-09 and its two other variants, the Tracer and XSR900. Great engine! Great price! How did Yamaha make a bike so good so cheap? They left the suspension out of the "great" and went budget.
Read more
Yamaha T7 Tenere 700 (XTZ690)
The Yamaha T7 The best of both worlds? Single cylinder feel with twin cylinder power? The new adventure bike standard?
Read more
Yamaha WR 250F and 450F
"The Forks were great when they were new. And then after a short while they turned to crap!" Yep, we've heard this one before. We've fixed it too.
Read more
Yamaha WR250R
It's a great little bike that can do more than you think. Is it the best sub 450cc adventure bike in the world?
Read more
Yamaha XT660Z Tenere
Our suspension guru Nick loves it so much he owns one! Great bike, and very capable. The suspension isn't great from the factory though.
