Fork tuning / Cartridge Emulators

Post by Bomberpilot »

Hi,
i local suspension tuner once told me that he has i kit to like convert the old style kayaba fork to a new system (a new way of working - like the newer forks work - it's somehow related to the oil flow) fork for not too much money. but i would have to buy his complete suspension tuning which then isn't that cheap anymore...
does anybody know what he has talked about or any experiences?

Thanks,
Thomas

it might be the emulator cartrige
the 450 will have less power and will be harder to start, and will be heavier, but to make up for it it will require more maintenance.

i read through that and it sounded exactly like the guy told me.
But i think he told me that he has like a replica of these parts and this is why they are cheaper.

does anybody has experiences with the race tech parts?
does anybody know anything about replicas of them - if they exist, where to buy them or what the companies name is?
