Fork Boots
An excellent replacement for the stock fork boots. These are great for protection from dirt, rocks and other contaminants. These boots utilize the latest advances in material technology to adapt to fork and styling demands. These high quality fork boots are 1/4 the price of the OEM factory replacements.

Fork Cartridge Dampers, Suspension
Use this installation tool from Cogent to be sure that your Cogent Drop-in Dynamic Cartridges are installed correctly. A strong magnet in the end holds the cartridge firmly while you lower it into your fork leg. Then slide the spring over the tool until it holds the DDC down, then gently remove the tool. That simple. Never again question if it is properly seated on the damper rod.
Works equally well for removal when you need to change your fork oil. Also works great with Race Tech Emulators.
Fork Cartridge Dampers
Enjoy improved front end control and ride comfort by converting the archaic dual Damper rod forks to true high performance monotube cartridge dampers. This kit contains a pair of high performance, Gas charged monotube fork cartridges complete with a set of our KLR proven fork springs. Direct internal component replacement for all 2008 to current KLR650 models. No modification to your forks are required.
- Improved resistance to front brake dive.
- Improved front end stability & cornering.
- Improved bottoming control.
- Lifetime limited warranty.
- The VERY BEST in dual sport suspension performance!
Damping Rod style forks are notorious for being too harsh, too mushy and too easy to bottom. Gold Valve Cartridge Emulators remedy this problem by controlling the compression damping with a tuneable valve. The Emulator sits on top of the damping rod and is held in place by the main spring.
Simply put; Emulators make damping rod forks perform like well-tuned cartridge forks. Installation and tuning for any condition or rider preference is very straight-forward.
Simple to install and completely tunable for all conditions and rider preferences.
These Cogent Drop-in Dynamic Cartridges will vastly improve both the compression and rebound damping of your stock forks. These units have been given the seal of approval by the ProCycle staff for both performance and ease of installation. No disassembly of your forks, no drilling of damper rods. Just change the oil over to 5w and install the DDCs under the springs and hit the trails.
Stiffer fork springs are recommended to get the full potential of the DDCs.

Limited to stock on hand
Race Tech has developed these fork springs specifically for the heavier weight of the KLR650.
Sold in pairs.
- The .43 springs are 7% stiffer than stock and will be a great choice for most riders
- The .48 springs are 17% stiffer than stock and will be a better choice for heavier riders
- The .52 springs are 30% stiffer than stock and will be a good choice for loaded adventure bikes or very aggressive riders
These will not fit the Tengai model.
Developed by the KLR suspenison experts at Cogent, this set of springs will stiffen up that wimpy KLR front end. Choose between .64 kg/mm springs (60% stiffer than stock) or .70 kg/mm units (75% stiffer than stock).
Will not work for 2014-Cur 'Mid-Year' New Edition Model
Progressive springs offer a soft initial spring rate for a plush ride. Progressively wound design provides increased resistance to bottoming as spring compresses. These springs are significantly stiffer than the wimpy stock springs.
They will make a big improvement in the front forks while still delivering a smooth ride. Sold in pairs.
Race Tech has developed these fork springs specifically for the heavier weight of the KLR650.
Sold in pairs.
- The .70 springs are 75% stiffer than stock and will be a great choice for most riders
- The .80 springs are 100% stiffer than stock and will be a better choice for heavier riders
Not for 2014-2018 New Edition
Cogent Drop-in Dynamic Cartridges will vastly improve both the compression and rebound damping of your stock forks. Designed by Rick at Cogent Dynamics on his high-tech suspension dyno, then tested and endorsed by KLR owners all over, these units have been given the seal of approval by the ProCycle staff for both performance and ease of installation. No disassembly of your forks, no drilling of damper rods. Just change the oil over to 5w and install the units under the springs and hit the trails.
If you weigh up to 250 pounds, select the .64 spring kit. If you are over 250 or carry lots of luggage, please select the .70 spring kit. Please call if you have any further questions.
All of these kits include DDCs, springs, fork oil and preload spacers.
A dual-rate fork spring for the early KLR650. These springs start with a .40 kg/mm winding and after approximately 20% of the stroke, stiffen up to .60 kg/mm for the remainder of the travel. A very nice improvement over the stock springs which are .40 kg/mm for the entire travel.
Lowering Link
Billet aluminum lowering links. Lowers the rear suspension approximately 1 to 2 inches depending on application.
*Important when lowering the rear suspension you want to raise the fork tubes in the clamps an equal amount of inches that the rear is being lowered. That way your bike will sit level when done.
Note: We only recommend the 2" lowering links for lighter non-aggressive riders as they allow the tire to rub when near bottoming.
Disclaimer: Lowering the front and/or rear of your motorcycle will change the geometry and may affect the handling, use caution after making changes/adjustments.
Some KLR models from 2004 - 2007 may have a longer shank that do not allow the bolts to tighten to the bearing. If that is the case, we recommend the addition of either a 14 mm split type lock washer or a 15 mm flat washer under the nut of both link mounting bolts.
Shock
The Moab Pro-Series shock from Cogent Dynamics is the standard by which all other shocks are judged in the KLR world. With its superior performance and exceptional reliability, Moab Pro-Series shocks have literally conquered the world many times over. The staff at Cogent is as passionate about motorcycles as you are.
Spring duties are handled by a custom spring available in either Standard or Heavy-Duty weights. The Standard spring will be fine if you are under 250 pounds and don't ride with luggage or passengers often. If you regularly carry luggage boxes and/or a passenger and weigh over 250 pounds, you will probably prefer the Heavy-Duty spring. Call if you have any questions.
Because of the limited space with the reservoir, adjusting your preload is just about impossible and for that reason we only sell these units with the Cogent Hydraulic Preload Adjuster already installed!
For a true comfort and performance package, we highly recommend upgrading your front suspension at the same time.
If you have '87-'07 KLR, you MUST order new mounting bolt. Not required for 2008-2018 models.
The Moab shock from Cogent Dynamics will change how you feel about your GEN 3 KLR650. You may like it now, maybe even like it a lot, but you will absolutely fall in love with it once you mount up a Moab shock.
Spring duties are handled by a custom spring available in either Standard or Heavy-Duty weights. The Standard spring will be fine if you are under 250 pounds and don't ride with luggage or passengers often. Ride heavily loaded or with a passenger regularly and you will probably want the Heavy-Duty spring.
There is very limited manual preload adjustment access on the Gen 3 KLR650 without removing the shock. Therefore, the addition of the Remote Preload adjuster gives you the convenience of optimizing your rear suspension spring preload for quick leveling (load compensation) of your bike to accommodate a passenger, luggage or just to change ride characteristics based on your preferences. The adjustment which would normally require reaching the shock in your bike to turn a threaded collar using a tool can be easily adjusted by twisting a remote knob which uses the convenience of hydraulics to change the spring preload up to 100% (9 mm total range of preload change).
There is a mounting conflict for the Remote Preload adjuster with the Happy Trails and T-REX crash bars.
