how do you figure?

British Superbike series (all classes) highest percentage of winners/champs
World Supersport round 1 this year 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th
AMA Supersport Champion
AMA guys like Hayden, Bostrom, Eslick, Rispoli, Pascarella, Fong, Weaver, Ferreira, etc, etc


Seems no truth to your posting. I know we had 11 new to K-Tech riders at Buttonwillow AFM round 1 and all were more than happy and zero issues..in fact got 2 more guys from that weekends results wanting to switch.

Maybe your just talking with someone really biased against them?? Be curious to hear. :)

Way before EDR got involved with them, I've heard good things about them. I hear the design is very similar to Ohlins.

exactly..thats the #1 reason we decided to work with them. Nothing but great things.
 
Info from Bobby Fong on Speed channel saying they were having issues with the fork having no feed back and the rear failing. Like I said its just here say. I have no personal experience with them! just saying what I heard
 
hahahah.. you actually READ what you type?? wow.... oh man i guess Ohlins should close up shop too i mean they can't get any feel in the Ducati MOT GP BIKE with the best $$$$ Ohlins.. its gotta be the forks fault...gotta be..
 
K tech is a beauty but it cost grip, but hey goto pay top dollar for the best?? lol
 
I fuckn love my Ktech!! I've ridden Ohlins, Penske and OEM.. LOL... How many podiums did Ktech have last weekend? Oh ya, I can't count that high either... I got 2..
BEAT GUTS!!!!!
 
I wouldn't consider Bobby Fong to be the ultimate source on technical advice. He's hella fun to watch though.

:rofl probably true
However the huge list of others in AFM, AMA, WERA, BSB, WSS etc are pretty good indicators ;)

Jovan while their top of line DDS sealed cartridge kit is not cheap it's less than the comparable Ohlins. Also with K-Tech you can go with their 25mm kit like Neil has and it's same price as the others 25mm cartridges.

Or like most our track day guys we just revalve and spring front end with K-Tech's fantastic SSK &/or SSRK kit and typically front end less than $600 installed! So ya got lots options :)
 
I have not ridden with Ohlins so I have no real point of reference... But I have run K-Tech since mid last year... and with Moss tuning... I love the ride
 
oh okay I have the 30mm Ohlins cartridge kit i paid $1,100 for.... like last year

What else are you going to blame, when not at the podium ? Sometimes it actually is true though.
