"Nicer" pre-kat fork caps???

[JavaJive]

Does anyone make "better" (nicer looking) fork caps for pre-kats... with the damping adjuster?
Bling bling.. (within reason)

Ooops.... forgot to say thanks in advance!!

Nope, you can put different caps without the adjuster. That adjuster does nearly nothing anyway. Or install racetech emulators then adjuster less caps.

[JavaJive]

Wow that was fast!
So, racetech emuators (was planning to when I rebuild them anyway)
They eliminate the adjusters, or they CAN be eliminated?
Could I use one of those preload adjust caps then?
(those colorful ones on epay)

They emulate a cartridge shocks valving. Preload adjusters are nice to have but, unnecessary. I have them, for the most part, you set them once, Done. You can do that with a piece of pipe and accomplish the same thing..

[JavaJive]

Yeah.... all the one's I've had, pretty much set 'em once....
Thanks again!

"T-Mod", the suspension guy was selling pre-load adjusters/caps.
Private message him to see if he still has any in stock.

Yup definitely get some racetech fork springs and cartridge emulators. Then you can get some different fork caps AND the bike will handle soooooooo much better. After I bought them for mine I was kicking myself in the ass for not doing that first thing.

I plan to do JUST THAT!!!
Just.... maybe not this month..... that stuff is SOOO expensive!!!
Lol... might even do one leg at a time..... spread out the expenses..

Lots of preload adjuster options on ebay. Include bandits in the search option to find them.

[JavaJive]

Thanks!
Looks like Bandit/epay it IS!
And away we go!

PS: Any thoughts on color? (anodized)

[katanarider]

Wait, so Bandit caps will fit Katanas ?

[JavaJive]

Lets hope so... since I bought em! lol

[katanarider]

My bet would be the Bandit 600 caps. I think I remember them being 41mm like the Katanas.

[JavaJive]

yeah, i think thats what the "auction" was for...
