race tech

Post by steve speed » Sat May 24, 2008 11:46 am

has any one fitted race tech gold valves to the R1 forks if so was it worth it ?? i have a ohlins on the rear which now makes the front feel crap, Ive changed the springs and oil but still there is to much compression damping and not enough rebound ,,race tech tell me there gold valves will sort it but i would like to know from someone who has done it ,,,,,,anyone :? :? :?

well valves on the way from race tech in the states and not a bad price after i blagged a discount,,, i can rebuild the forks myself so that will be a good saving , its cost £150 to my door , so with any luck it will slow me down and keep me on the right side of the white line ,,,,,or is that the left ?? :lol: :lol:

Racetech Emulators are the way to go definitely!!!
Ive got them in mine and the difference is astonishing
a lot of work to install even with the very detailed instructions provided.
But well worth it!!
although i got my TRX with Ohlins Fork-springs so i dont know what the effect would be with the std items but i imagine itl still be a huge improvement!
