Which Front Set-up?

[SweetLou]

So I am getting the rear Ohlins shock, but looking at replacing the front as well. I have been told that Ohlins also makes emulators for the 99 Katana's. I need something for bigboy's, and that will support lots of weight. Any ideas on what I should get? Maybe some links to where I can purchase said emulators as well?

I need the info as well. The Ohlins I have now on the rear makes my front feel like crap.

Maybe CyberPoet can get us a group buy???

Good idea, he is a Ohlins supplier now, isn't he?

I already PM'd him about suspension parts for the front awhile ago, since I bought a rear off him. His reply...

Replacement springs, Öhlins front fork spring kit
Part No. 08647-80
Length 365 mm
• Designed to improve performance and to match the Öhlins shock absorbers.
• Give the right balance between front fork and shock absorber.
• Approximately 10% harder than the standard springs, but there are exceptions. For some bikes, for example Ducati, the springs are softer than standard!

Plus fork oils & steering dampers (although I think steering dampers are unneeded for the Kat unless you are changing the attack angle of the bike heavily).

Depending on the cost and savings, i may be up for a group buy. I'm kinda broke for the next couple months though after buying too many toys.

I am in for sure on a group buy.
