Shocked.

[OW31]

This arrived today 



The stock shock wasn't bad, wasn't fantastic either, hopefully there's a noticeable improvement.

Interested in how this works, I am going manual K-tech, but I did look seriously at this.

I custom ordered my non ESA X/R and then took the rear shock off and replaced it with a Wilbers and it’s superb, the KTM GT I bought in 19 has electric sus , and i’ll Be more than happy to chuck the sus in the bin at the first opportunity, so i’m On my starting blocks...if Bazzer and K-Tech can come up with a solution

Does no-one produce fork cartridge kits for the XR forks?

@Mareng1 Yep K-Tech used my forks to develop a cartridge kit and they have my bike at the moment finishing the details of the rear shock.

Have to go up those neck of the woods on Monday so may well look into K-Tech and have a chat, in another life...had quite a bit to do with Ken Somerton.

Re the non ESA forks on mine plenty of ajustment and more than happy, it just needed a quality rear shock.

Tractive do a plug an play insert, I'm waiting to see how their shock is before getting the matching fork upgrade.

I made one for about a tenner before I had the ESA disabled in the flash.
