Jerry - I haven't yet installed the fork kit. I believe your abbreviation (RT GVE) is shorthand for RaceTech Gold Valve Emulators. I think I can install the kit without separating the fork stantions from the fork sliders. Here's a copy and paste from the Traxxion Dynamics invoice for the kit, which retails for $300.00.
Year, Make, Model: 2014 Honda CB1100 (standard)
Rider/Passenger Weight: 165 -170 lbs.
Track, Street, Touring: street/light touring looking for plush ride
FRP-TDR-S2-K Fork Valve Kit and Springs for '09 Showa 41 mm
Kit consists of:
- springs
- spacers
- new damper rods drilled to accommodate Race Tech emulators (Gold Valves)
- RaceTech Gold valves adjusted by Traxxion Dynamics for my weight and type of riding.
I want to contact Dan at Traxxion Dynamics prior to installation to confirm fork oil weight, oil distance from top of fork, and that a sticker on the RT valves indicate they've been adjusted for my weight and riding preference.
