K-Tech can provide it all from servicing, spare parts, bespoke suspension, conversion kits, service manuals and tooling!

Such is K-Tech’s dedication to innovation that they continue to expand their research and development even today. With multiple road, enduro and motocross successes to its name, K-Tech is now one of the world’s leading manufacturers and suppliers of motorcycle suspension products and parts. Formed by Ken Summerton (Tru Track Suspension) and Chris Taylor (CTR Suspension) in 2001, K-Tech builds upon over 57 years of combined expertise. Ken had previously been working in a small home-based workshop since 1985 whilst working full-time as an aircraft engineer. Chris also started a part-time business in 1992 after competing in motocross events in the UK and Europe. Chris went on to work with many high level teams in British and World Motocross championships including RWJ, CAT Finning Honda, TBC Yamaha, Rob Hooper Suzuki and Team Green Kawasaki working with such calibre of riders as Neil Prince, Paul Cooper, Rob Herring, Jared Smith, Mike Brown, Carl Nunn, Tony Marshall and Stefan Everts.

More recently, they have continued to forge forward in their pursuit of off-road success by testing with riders at the highest level of motocross racing. The MX Vice team caught up with K-Tech Technician Michael Hancock last year during a two-day test in Belgium with JWR Yamaha MXGP riders Kevin Strijbos and Vsevolod Brylyakov. The team were busy dialling in their settings ready for another assault on the FIM Motocross World Championship and with K-Tech’s help they focussed the two-day test on giving increased performance and control for the upcoming sand and hard pack GPs at Valkenswaard and Pietramurata.
