Interesting option for front fork cartridge kit.
#1

Never heard of this company, but they are supposedly a partner of Ohlins. These actually seem pretty reasonably priced for something that can actually be dropped into the bike and installed at home.

Not sure if anyone has any experience with it, just found it in a random Google search and thought I would post it up here. If these allow for compression and rebound damping adjustment I'd consider them for that alone.

But you have to send your forks to Sweden?

You don't to have to choose the install option. Looking online there are lots of tutorials people have posted of self-installs on other bikes. Their stuff seems to be popular for the Ducati Scrambler and the Yami FZ'S.

It does look cool, but also pricey and a lot of work (new seals, polishing, etc.) Not sure what it would buy over just a set of new progressive fork springs, other than a little more adjustability (much of which can be handled by different weight fork oils anyway).

These look like they would get you most if not all of the way there for a lot less work and save you $500 to put towards the rear shocks:

Still, it is always interesting to see new options. Glad to see people are still making some for us.

The oem setup is the old damper rod suspension. This kit is a cartridge suspension with preload, compression and rebound damping adjusability. Like night and day; the price for daylight is quite low. I good bargain.
