Do you want your Apex model 690R to be smoother, safer, faster, better traction, and have more precise steering ?
You found the right place! The 690R Apex Gobbler Pro is a large improvement in every category. This is about traveling in so much comfort on the dirt and on the road. As plush as the 690R becomes you will still have considerably more bottoming resistance. Before you know it you are doing 5mph to 10mph higher rate of speed and yet you feel safer than you did before at a slower pace.

FACTORY INSTALLED 690R GOBBLER PRO - APEX 2014 to 2018 models
We know the 690R is tall. Keep in mind it also has 250mm of travel. If you lower your bike 1 inch you then have reduced the travel to 225mm. This bike more than most gets noticeably less compliant and harshness rears its head.
