Öhlins FKA Cartridge Kit Adventure incl. Springs FKA 121
Based on the well proven NIX technology from our Road & Track product line, Öhlins developed the FKA cartridge kits for Adventure Bikes improving these in terms of comfort and overall performance.
Thanks to the FKA cartridge kits from Öhlins the bike now has a fully adjustable front end. Rebound damping is on one leg and compression in the other leg, with adjustable spring preload in both legs. Different springs are available for riders individual demands as well as an effective hydraulic stop inside the kit to prevent bottoming.
The package includes 2 sets of front fork springs with different spring rates. Spring rate recommendations can be found in the mounting instruction. Front fork oil needs to be ordered separately.
The Öhlins cartridge system fits into the original front fork. Please follow our recommendations regarding spring rates and oil in relation to rider's weight and preference listed in the specific cartridge kit's mounting instruction.
