The other thing I really like about the Moton is that it's so darned easy to make them ride well on the street but great on the track with about 5-10minutes of adjusting!

Although, unless he changed his springs, I don't think any amount of adjusting will make Karlooz's suspension real cushy on the street.

hehe, you ought to know jim, they were your motons . i have 450# front/700# rear and they are pretty rough. i have set the motons at 0 compression damping and 7 rebound damping for the street and it helps. cushy no, bearable yes. i'm thinking of swapping the springs down to gt3 spring rates to get more comfort on the streets since it is a 30 day track car and 335 day street car.
