I have a stripped down Cal II. I know I can get new FAC or Wirth cartridge dampers and a fork brace to upgrade them. What other right side up conversions have been done? I'm after increased rigidity and adjustability.Any suggestions?
back in the day I had heard of folks installing the damper rod internals from a ceriani (or maybe it was marcocchi) 35mm fork into a guzzi 35mm fork. damper rods forks are far from perfect, but have some advantages over the screen door closer cartridges was have as options.
I've had realy good results replacing the 35mm guzzi fork with USD gsxr forks on both my cx100's. Better rock solid stability and agility at all speeds for me with world class brakes for free. just saying.Harry
I found the original front fork spring good enough. Some not very heavy people wrote about bottoming out of the fork with progressive springs.
I upgraded the the 35 mm damper rod forks on my old Yamaha. It transformed the ride and I'm thrilled. I added custom wound straight rate springs, Race Tech emulators, and a fork brace. Parts were acquired from Traxxion Dynamics. For better results, just send them the forks and write the check. www.traxxion.com The emulators are tuneable.It's much better than it was when it was new!Get that SS El Camino out of the pile and give it some love....
I have done that quite a few times with mine (progressives). I am not light, at 200lb.
Guzzi forks have sealed cartridge dampers, no way to install emulators. The Progressive springs are a good idea.
