Race Tech fork springs, ect

[Mike Lenz]

Just checked out Race tech vintage stuff and they have a very good selection of fork springs for Ceriani and marzocchi forks along with Gold valve fork kits for the same(another answer for the 38mm Marz fork harshness), fork seals, wild looking reservoir shocks. They also state they have shock springs but no details on site. They also offer hard anodizing for the inside of your forks or shocks and brake drum/shoe arcing. They seem to be into Penton/KTM's as the picts of the shocks are on an MC-5 and the wheel they show arcing looks to be a late 70's front KTM wheel. They even revalve Works Perf shocks and guarantee the results!? Measure your fork springs though because they recommend springs for the 35 and 38 Marz forks that are the same length and I dont think thats right. Check your springs and go off their chart list of springs.
Very neat stuff here.

Mike,

The MC5 in those pictures is owned by a guy here in Florida. I'll see him next month at a race, but I remember asking him about the shocks last year and he said they were incredible. My thoughts at the time were "for $1100 they darn well better be incredible". He also has emulators in 38mm 'Zokes. With the combo he said it transformed the bike.

i rode that bike of his at portland mi this last summer. the front forks were phenomenal.rear shocks were good too but the lead time on them is long and IMO, ohlins are just as good and cheaper if you can believe that. i was so impressed with the forks that i will be doing the gold valve mod to my forks for my vintage 'scrambler.
