Re: Cheap emulator alternatives
But wont you have to wear leather chaps, sport a handle bar moustache and sing in the village people to have anything from Hardley Movingson on your bike?

Re: Cheap emulator alternatives
Who cares that is still c£100 cheaper than racetech ones.
And yes I know it says h*rl*y on site... but valves are made in taiwan so they should be OK!

Re: Cheap emulator alternatives
Good find.
If I wasn't getting shot of the SV I'd give them a bash for the £45 or so they'd cost in total to get them here. |

Re: Cheap emulator alternatives
Look like rip-offs of the Racetech ones to me.

Re: Cheap emulator alternatives
They work the same way but lets face it a checkplate and a preloaded pop off valve to sit on top of a damper rod is hardly exclusive technology.
I don't know who thought of them first TBH but it wouldn't surprise me. Racetech are certainly not the only company who manufacture an emulator of sorts.

Re: Cheap emulator alternatives
Racetech copies you mean these?
And quantify not as good, such a basic part can't really be bad unless it's not flat. Not as good is a pretty meaningless statement.

Re: Cheap emulator alternatives
Good spot Chris,
I will have a think about purchasing a set. Emulators were on my shopping list anyway but £140 was outside what I can justify at present. Jambo
