    Suspension question

    I've heard that having the standard forks on the Mille setup correctly can be as good, if not better, that a set of Ohlins. But what I was wondering is what're better for road riding, a properly setup pair of Ohlins or a properly setup pair of Showas (or whatever the standard forks are)?
