Default Re: New fork internals on the market

I just sent an email asking for a quote and more info. I'll post as soon I get a reply.
You might want to ask yourself so just google Technoflex out and its a site with a .nl suffix. It's in English so don't let that dissuade you.

I emailed him to, just wondered if anyone had found out details. There is a link to the site on the first page of this thread.

This is the K kit which is essentially a spring upgrade, the bits on the bottom left are adapters to fit the springs and restrict oil flow, they're good value if your looking at fitting springs and preload adjusters to a carby

Out of curiosity do the pointy owners experience the front 'PLONK' noise as well. Maybe since they've got preload adjustment as standard that can eliminate it? To say the truth that's what bothers me most. I know the suspension could be better than OEM on SV's as I've ridden higher spec bikes (GSXR's and Blades) so know the difference but for my type of riding I can live with what I've got as long as I remove that PLONK for now.

I used to (with stock suspension), but only really noticed it when riding 30-40, without earplugs, over potholed roads. I'd not experienced it at higher speeds on bumpy bar-wag inducing A-roads.

Matris call them flow regulators, not emulators.

Yes we do get the annoying 'plunk' sound but as mentioned only at town speeds. Thought this was down to head bearings but I take it if I was to change the fork internals this will eliminate the problem as it proper winds me up as well.
