Cartridge Emulators

[salty_monk]

I see they've gone up by $10... about $170 now. This is the 37mm fork part number FEGV S3301

But sadly only in one size and not the size most (all?) of the GS's need. You have to make a sleeve/bushing like salty_monk did to use the Mike's XS emulators. If you have the resources to do that they are a great deal.

Ah, yes. And I also didn't see salty_monk's post about thesame product and the problem with sizing.

I'll just see myself out now.

Amazon has the FEGV 3301 on sale. The Specs are identical to the FEGV S3301 except that they are listed as a dirt bike part, not street.
Anyone know what the difference is?

I have them in my 700, they are fantastic big difference.

Just put them in my 550, the harsh feel over tiny bumps and cracks in the road are gone.

And the real beauty of the emulators is that you can crank up the low speed compression damping for better road feel without paying any penalty on the nasty sharp edged bumps and can properly tune rebound damping by itself without any significant cross talk between the two circuits.

Ive tried to order them from Racetech twice now, no luck unfortunately. The only other place i can find them is Amazon, but they dont list the S in the part number for street. I assume they are the dirt model and there is some difference there?

[tkent02]

Dunno, did you call them?

No, ill have to work out the time difference and try.

[salty_monk]

Believe the difference is the spring rate (or possibly just a way to justify a price difference)

Does anyone know what one would have to do to put these into a 1982 GS750E with the anti dive system removed?

Install as per the directions; no different than most all RSU GS forks.
