Motorcycle Fork ESA Compatible Replacement Cartridge Kits

When most riders talk performance the first thing they think of is POWER - but if you're smart, that's the last on the list. Shoving grunt into a chassis that can't cope builds a scary bucking bronco. First steps are basics - make sure your bike is properly maintained, clean, no leaks, fresh oil, good clutch setup. Remove any extra weight. Fit grippy tyres. You've got the perfect starting point! Quality suspension comes next & Teknik Motorsport are ESA motorcycle suspension tuning experts.

The stock front fork legs on modern ESA equipped motorcycles are plugged directly into the main ECU wiring loom - this exotic & complex factory setup couldn't be improved, right? It would cause all sorts of digital tantrums & dashboard error messages, surely? The advanced electric adjustable damping & spring preload on your sports or offroad BMW was developed by people from an aftermarket suspension company called Tractive - and they never stopped development.

Their improved DDA valves are found in these single leg or separate dual leg dynamic replacement cartridges, automatically customising for perfect traction on any terrain with any rider. They are more durable, have faster reaction times & increased compression & rebound adjustment range, so can tune in finer increments. All existing front & rear functionality integrates seamlessly, without software or menu changes - using the same standard plug.

The electronic dampers screw in without complete fork disassembly, no drilling, cutting or grinding. Skilled DIY garage tuners can do it, though we recommend installation by a professional mechanic.

Watching racing videos, do the winners look like they're being kicked around? That circuit star can lean further, without braking dive, sailing over cornering bumps that push you off line. That motocross hero hooks up on loosest dirt, turns quicker after landing jumps, floats over whoops that rattle you roughly. Are they more skilled? Maybe. But their motorbike is predictable & controlled, giving confidence to push grip further & time to concentrate on faster laps.

Tuned suspensions aren't just for the track though. Riding on potholed tarmac or offroad trail adventures improves too - a smooth ride, comfortable saddle no longer absorbing corrugations & vibration, longer endurance. Keeping safe tyre contact with the road under all conditions gives more grip & acceleration.

So now you've built up some skills & experienced riding a competent bike, how about setting up your gearing for better lap times & ridability? You're finally ready to turn up the wick with a screaming tuned engine & a blasting aftermarket muffler - but have a think about it first.
