KYB inserts to SACHS forks
Has anyone performed this? The kyb inserts thread for the tc to top tube is a perfect match.
I sketched out the adaptor for the fork axle. Pretty simple peice to sandwich in between the lower tube and axle clamp. This adapter will allow the kyb damper rod nut to mount up. I am pretty excited to do this. I could make up more if others are interested. Rob

Rob, just found out all the 2013 Australian E start models will be shipping with 45 zokes. The race models with the 48 zokes. So no fresh market to sell your inserts here. Thats not to say people with the older Sachs aren't looking to upgrade. Simmo and I went TTX route, but not everyones got the spare coin for that.

Gasgas oz are indeed very silly, I just can't believe they are doing that....

Interested. Although I'm not exactly sure what I'm interested in?
I gather KYB internals can be purchased which fit inside the Sachs tubes? What is the adaptor? I'm dumb regarding suspension sorry. |

The KYB SSS swap is not that big of a deal. Ed's '11 tured out very nice, and when using the Yamaha clamps the offsets worked out perfect. I'd maybe look into mfg a kit to use the GG wheel and brakes with the Yamaha fork. The GG brake is larger in dia also. Axel, spacers, caliper carrier adapter should do it. I still might do this to my '07.
