Turning my Attention to the Front Forks, Brings up a Few Issues. Original Forks are Damper Rod which have no Adjust-ability Except for Three Clicks of Preload, and a now Defunked Anti-Dive Unit.  So what are the Options To Give A Better More Adjustable Front End: A) Cartridge Emulator either YSS or Racetech. B) Fit Cartridges into Original Forks. C) Fit Cartridge Front Forks. D) Stick With What You Have, Better Springs and Heavier Fresh Oil. |

setup right, cartridge emulators work brilliantly. they're just a fuckaround to adjust (pull caps, pull springs, fish out emulators, adjust, reassemble, ride)

So We Can Rule out Cartridges into Original Forks, there is some machining to do and i don't have the Contact to get this done, so would need to pay top dollar at local machine shop. There is a possibility that RF900 Cartridges might fit, but for Me this Path Ends Here, if some one manages to get it Done Give me a shout as i would like to See it Done. Bolts for damper are different sizes.  Oil Locks are diffrent Sizes so would have to machine down to fit  |
