WILL IT BOUNCE?? Hyperpro Suspension Upgrade in a Suzuki SV650X!! - A Day in the Life

Today I'm fitting a suspension kit from Hyperpro. This is not a review of the product, rather a installation video and an insight to what you can expect in this kit.
A new rear shock absorber is supplied in the kit and is a direct replacement. Same ride height but a shorter spring with adjustable rebound clicker.
The front fork springs are swapped out with their dual rate springs made for the rider and a heavier weight fork oil.
This job was performed at Zen Motorcycles in Sydney, Australia. If you live in the area and would like some work done on your bike, get in touch with the shop. We carry out routine maintenance and custom upgrades for our clients.

Thanks for the insights. I got also hyperpro suspension on my Ktm 390 Adventure and it works amazing

[@paz2wheels]

They are really worth the coin!

[@bryanjarencio453]

Clean vid with good narration 🙌🏻

[@paz2wheels]

Appreciate it! Cheers

I got some new insight of how to change oil in the forks, Thanks! I believe that Hyperpro wants you to install the springs differently, with the tighter part up, as in there kit, for my DL 650.

[@paz2wheels]

Depends of the kit and model. Generally for conventional forks the tight coil is at the bottom.

[@NakaNakaDerkaDerka]

I had been looking out your garage window and thinking that looks like Australia and even Sydney park where zen isolated!

[@paz2wheels]

We’re right opposite Sydney park at 200 Euston rd Alexandria. Good spot.

0:53 Hyperpro is actually Dutch, not from the UK

[@paz2wheels]

You are correct. Their wiki indicated they have head office in the UK which threw me off.

[@danielgriffiths8725]

Ive seen people put the tight coiled end on the top

[@paz2wheels]

You can in some set up for sure.

[@Steyreon]

What tech is the voice?

[@paz2wheels]

I used to use a voice over app called speechify but i dont use it anymore.

[@fuglbird]

After seeing this guy work on a bike and hearing him "explain" springs I wouldn't let him near my SV650.

[@paz2wheels]

Appreciate the feedback, not the right video if you want detailed suspension lesson. Not sure whats wrong with the work though?

[@PissTakeProduction]

You don't understand what it takes to make a video and then develop an opinion like your comment. I found the video is pretty good in the gist on suspension choice and how to go about the basics.

@@paz2wheels I can give you motorcycle suspension lessons if you want to. My current hourly rate is € 215. Regarding your work you should read the service manual. Knowledge of the SV650 makes the work a lot faster and you are less likely to damage the bike. I guess many garages in Australia work in the same way that you do. In Europe we are spoiled with SV650 suspension specialists.

[@paz2wheels]

@fuglbird no thanks, I can think of better things to spend my money on. That hilarious, people actually specialise in SV650’s in Europe!? Mate it’s about as complicated as lego, are these specialists toddlers? I can rebuild these engines blindfolded. We don’t specialise in these things in Oz cause we can do everything here. But Europe is a continent in decline so that does not surprise me that you need specialists for something simple like this. Thanks for the kind words and good luck with the lessons.
