Product Details
BITUBO fork glide kit for original forks, consisting of 2 slide bushings and 2 shaft seal rings, for Ducati models according to the application list.General Description
The Kit S was developed to reduce fork friction. The smooth gliding of the fork is absolutely essential during brakeing, as the forces involved can cause the fork tube to twist due to exponentially increasing friction. An original fork equipped with Kit S is consistently smoother and provides the rider with improved feedback on the front wheel during hard brakeing and corner entry.Glide vs. Stiction:
The KIT S significantly reduces the "stiction" of the surfaces at high breakaway moments and at the point of initial force application, allowing the fork to act faster and more finely.
Kit S contains
A pair of slide bushings for the outer tube of the fork with a special anti-friction coating. These bushings are each embedded in a 7075 aluminium ring, calibrated in dimension to create a perfect interplay between the piston and the stanchion.
A pair of seals between the piston rod and the end piece, with novel sealing edges and innovative self-lubricating treatment, which significantly reduces friction.
