[QUOTE="Rcannon, post: 904160, member: 26263"] Bruce, I now have about 20 hours on my Too Tech sub Tank. At first I was not too happy about the place it mounted to. The mounting has caused no problems at all. I prefer the look of the enzo tanks, but mine works just fine. After riding the bike, I could care less how it looks. This story has to go back to last August. I had set my forks up as specified in Eric's Book. They felt ok, but I was not getting full travel. I dropped the oil level. At 105mm the fork felt excellent. Eric recommended 90mm, but I felt like I had this figured out. The 90mm oil level made the forks feel rather harsh and uncomfortable. BAM! I hit the last woop hard. A broken wrist was my first clue that maybe my forks were not perfect. The bike was going up for sale. I decided to try a subtank. I called Rick Johnson at Too Tech and he sent me a tank setup. This gave me time to fins my 1/8 NPT tap as well as the correct bit. The drilling and tapping were no big deal. I then bolted the tank on. I brought the oil level back to 90mm as I shoudl have dont in the first place. A few weeks ago I went back to the same woop section. Riding around the track I noticed the fork responding to the small stuff. The bike felt comfortable...almost trailbike like. I silently thought..I'm screwed when I hit the woops. I hit the front brake hard for a right hand corner. The front end dropped just the perfect amoint..nice! I charged at the whoop and hit it....no bottoming. I was thrilled. I believe you can get by without the tank. I believe you coudl tune the fork to handle anything you want. With the tank I can make the fork do anything I want it to do easily. The air valves are super sensative. Three turns out and the bike feels like a trail bike. At one turn out it feels stiff. Its like being able to adjust the oil level while you ride. The air valves give you controll over the level. Overall, it was one of the best products I have bought for my bike. Your starting with decent forks in the first place. Obviously, the tanks will not make as big of a difference in them. Mine sucked and were dangerous before I started. [/QUOTE]
