ÖHLINS has based its fork cartridge kits for adventure bikes on its existing ‘NIX’ cartridge technology for road bikes.
The FKA cartridge kit features a compact design to make it easy to fit in the USD forks most adventures bikes are equipped with. Once installed the bike has a fully adjustable front end. Rebound damping is on one leg and compression within the other, with adjustable spring preload in both. Different springs are available for riders’ individual demands and there is an effective hydraulic stop inside the kit to prevent ‘bottoming’.
Robert Brinkmark, Öhlins Product Manager Motorcycles, said: “The FKA Cartridge kit is a very easy way to upgrade adventure bike suspension, offering great quality, durability and easy adjustment.
“This market has grown massively over the past decade and interest is still increasing for this segment. Here at Öhlins we also know adventure bike riders demands a lot from their bikes in general and suspension in particular, so we look forward to continued development in this area.”
The new FKA range is available for BMW F800GS ‘08-‘12 and ‘13-’14, Ducati Multistrada 1200 ‘09-’12, Triumph Tiger 800 ‘11-’14, and Triumph Tiger XC ‘11-’14 models.
