Man that sucks to hear but don't give up just yet!! My father has had the same and although he's on a lot of painkillers he still comes out in the Suzuki's so there is hope :thumbup:

To be properly road legal it will need an IVA test with any coil conversion. Personally I wouldn't go one link if used on road but there's no reason why a well set up 3 link wouldn't drive fine on road, just need to make sure you work ou the geometry properly.
