Matris - F15K hydraulic fork kit
Italian suspension specialist Matris has a great upgrade for conventional, non-adjustable front forks - the Matris F15K, a hydraulic cartridge kit to update and improve them.
Fully precision CNC-machined in lightweight aluminium alloy with oxidation surface treatment for better durability, reduced friction and smooth operation, the F15K was first introduced to the market in 2015 and has been refined ever since - "it represents one of our best selling products," co-owner Alberto Turcato told IDN.
"Designed to upgrade the standard and conventional forks seen on a lot of European and Japanese motorcycle models, the 20 mm diameter F15K simply drops-in to replace the internals of the original forks.
"It is a true 'plug and play' design that does not require modification to the original fork - so it is a 100% fully reversible upgrade. Easy to install and to adjust (all the adjuster units are on the top of the fork cap), the F15K is an asymmetric kit - compression in one side, rebound in the other one, preload on both sides.
"Thanks to Matris' 'quad valve system', the kit allows a fully hydraulic adjustment and setting, avoiding any internal cavitation (air pockets) during use. Every F15K application is model-specific, and the spring rate can be customised in relation to the driver weight and luggage load."
