Suntour makes a variety of forks from cheap low quality ones to expensive high quality ones.
You hear people whinging about cheap Suntour forks but you don't hear many complaints about their better quality more expensive forks.
Suntour made forks for Marzocchi for about 10 years.

I understand rock shox are pretty good? I'll stick to them for my first bike then.
Don't get brainwashed into thinking that Rockshox is the only brand worth buying, there's other brands that make good forks too.
* Suntour makes some forks that are better then some Rockshox forks too.
