Product details

BITUBO fork slide kit for original fork, consisting of 2 slide bushes and 2 shaft seal rings.
For Yamaha YZF-R3, Type RH07 / RH12, Model Year 2015-18

General description

The Kit S was developed to reduce fork friction. The smooth sliding of the fork is absolutely necessary during brake because 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 brake and corner entry.

Sliding vs. Stiction:
The Kit S significantly reduces surface "sticking" at high breakaway torques and at the moment of initial force application, allowing the fork to act faster and more precisely.

Kit S contains
A pair of slide bushes for the outer tube of the fork with a special anti-friction coating. These bushings are each embedded in a ring of Aluminium 7075, dimensionally calibrated to ensure perfect interaction between the piston and fork tube.
A pair of seals between the piston rod and sealing plug, with novel sealing edges and innovative self-lubricating treatment, which greatly reduces friction.
