Certified K-Tech Road Performance Centre
Suspension Service & Tuning
Forks and shocks rebuilt, revalved and set up for you — not for the average rider the factory sprung it for.
Carry your forks in, or bring us the whole bike. Prices are on this page, and parts are quoted before we touch anything.
A certified K-Tech Road Performance Centre
Officially certified to service and tune K-Tech Suspension products and provide trackside support. — K-Tech Suspension, on what a Road Performance Centre is
Indy Superbikes is one of the few shops in the midwest certified to sell and service the top-of-the-line TRDS range.
The certification is specific to K-Tech, but our bench isn't. We service most OEM and aftermarket forks and shocks including Öhlins, Bitubo, Andreani, WP, Showa, and more.
Note that some OEM shocks are sealed units that can't be opened at all, so those need a phone call before you take anything apart.

Brands we service
Our certification is specific to K-Tech. These are other makes our bench works on regularly — tell us what you've got and we'll tell you straight whether it's something we can service.
How our pricing works
One rule explains this whole page: every price is for the component already off the bike. Getting it off the bike is a separate, named line — never a surprise on the invoice.
You bring the parts
Forks off the bike, or a shock already out. Every price in the menu below is this price.
- Cheapest way to have the work done
- Straight comparison against a mail-in specialist
- You do the removal and refitting
You bring the bike
We pull the parts, do the work, and put the bike back together.
- Add +$250 for forks — so fork service on the bike is $500
- Shocks vary by model; we confirm before starting
- Includes setting your sag and a road test
Prices are labor. Parts — seals, bushings, oil, springs, cartridge kits — are quoted separately, and we'll always get your approval before ordering or fitting anything.
Shop K-Tech
We stock the K-Tech range we're certified to fit. Everything here is built to order and valved for your weight and how you actually ride — so it's worth a conversation before you buy, not after.

That's the normal starting point — tell us what it's doing and we'll tell you what's worth changing. A cartridge kit or shock is almost always fitted and set up here, so the install price is on the menu above.
Why have it done here
We charge a little more than a mail-in bench for some of this work. Here's exactly what you get for it.
Sag set with you on the bike
Rider sag is the single highest-value adjustment in suspension, and it can only be measured with the rider aboard in riding gear. A mail-in specialist never gets to do it. We do it as a matter of course.
Road-tested before you collect it
The bike is here, so the work gets checked on the road rather than signed off on a bench. If something isn't right we find it, not you.
No two-way freight, no lost week
Boxing a shock and shipping it both ways adds cost and usually a week or more. Carry-in skips all of it.
Certified for the parts we fit
Ray and Chuck both completed K-Tech's week-long road race program, which is the requirement to sell and service the TRDS range. We fit what we're trained on.
Frequently asked
Is a "revalve" the same as valve service?
No — completely different jobs, and the names are unhelpfully similar.
A revalve is suspension work: changing the shim stack inside a fork cartridge or shock so the damping suits your weight and pace. That's this page.
Valve service is engine work — checking and adjusting valve clearances in the cylinder head, usually as part of a major interval service. That's on our main service page.
Do I need to bring the whole bike, or just the parts?
Either. Every price on this page is for the component already off the bike — that's the cheapest way to have the work done, and it's what you're comparing against when you look at a mail-in specialist.
If you'd rather not pull them yourself, add the removal and reinstall line and bring us the bike. Forks are a flat +$250. Shocks vary by model, so we confirm before starting.
Mail-in specialists charge less. Why should I come to you?
Straight answer: on the bench work alone, they're often a little cheaper, and we're not going to pretend otherwise.
What they can't do is set your sag with you sitting on the bike, road-test the result, or hand it back the same week. Suspension that's been perfectly rebuilt and then run at the wrong sag will still feel wrong — and sag is the part that needs you physically present.
If you already know exactly what you want and you're happy to measure your own sag, mail-in is a reasonable choice. If you want it right when you ride away, bring us the bike.
Can you service my OEM shock?
Call us first. Some OEM shocks are fully serviceable, and some genuinely aren't — a number are sealed units that were never designed to be opened. It depends on the specific shock, not the brand or the model year.
Text or call with your year, make and model and we'll tell you which you've got before you take anything apart.
How do I know whether I need a service or a revalve?
Rough rule: if the suspension used to feel right and now doesn't, you need a service — oil breaks down and seals wear. If it has never felt right for you, you need a revalve, or possibly just different springs and a sag setup.
A lot of bikes that get booked in for a revalve actually need $100 of sag setup and a spring rate that matches the rider. We'll tell you if that's yours — it's the cheapest fix on this page and it's frequently the correct one.
Are parts included in these prices?
No. Every price on this page is labor only. Seals, wipers, bushings, oil, springs and cartridge kits are quoted separately once we've seen what yours actually needs.
We'll always get your approval on parts before we order or fit anything.
Do you sell K-Tech parts as well as service them?
Yes — cartridge kits, shocks, springs and service parts across the K-Tech range, including the TRDS line that the certification covers.
The full catalogue isn't on the site yet. Call or text with your year, make and model and we'll price it and tell you what's realistic on lead time.
Talk to us about your bike
Tell us the year, make and model, your weight in riding gear, and what the bike is doing that you don't like. That's enough for us to give you a real answer instead of a follow-up question.
