These people in the States have fitted the Ohlins too and you can see them at about 0.50s in the video of the bike on Ytb.

as for cartridge kits andreani get good reviews and are a lot cheaper than ohlins. for the clocks and lights I think you'll have to go main dealer.

 

Ohlins fully adjustable preload and compression £650.00 and work very well on the Thruxton 1200 S which is pretty much the same bike

 

This sounds like the accident I saw in Northumberland!

 

Glyn,
Are these FKS218 cartridges , which springs did you go for to suit your bike & and are they easy to fit i.e due the fork legs need to come off the bike ? or do in situ ?.

cheers Ady

 

They’re NIX 30’s , not sure if that’s the same with a different name.
I went for the hardest springs they do as I’m no lightweight and I like to feel the road.
I removed the forks and k tech rebuilt on the bench

 

thanks i will do some more research which Ohlins dealer did you use ?
