Got My Howards Ohlins 30mm Cartridges Fork Legs Installed
« on: March 14, 2016, 07:22:25 PM »

I went out for my 1st Ride with the new Cartridges.  I never knew how bad my Bike rode with Progressive Springs and Cartridge emulators. The front wheel stays planted even on rough expansion joints. Handles wonderfully in the twisties!  It made me see that I don't have my rear Hyperpro shocks tuned properly. Getting my Bike

How much were they? I already have Howards shocks on back of my bike.

The Cartridges were 1300. The disassembling, modify the 49mm fork tubes, machine spacers, reassembly with new other parts that fit it all together total was at 1800. It was a bit of a wait because winter time people all rebuild their Bikes during the winter.  I am happy to have it all back together. I am Happy.
