Norge Forks Upgrade

The best kit on the market currently; https://www.guzzitech.com/store/product/norgebreva-fork-kit/ -- or if you want to spend big $'s, I can move you into a full cartridge kit.
Way back around 2008 or so I had Todd install a cartridge emulator kit in my 2007 Norge along with a Hyperpro rear shock I also bought off of him. I think the brand was Hyperpro on the forks but I would have to look it up. They needed some drilling so I sent them to Todd and he set everything up for my weight and riding style. I think he leaned a bit too much towards race set up as it was a bit stiff for my liking. The Norge had almost no chicken strips but the very edge was virgin. I am even mor cautious on the California. I asdjusted the preload and damping at the rear and it was great. Not a lot off, just that little bit. The front was a bit harsh I felt also and Todd said he used 15wt oil in them. I called the manufacturer and got their recommendation and switched to 10wt. Who cares about adjustment when it rides and handles that nice. At that point adjustability would have been something I kept playing with till I got it wrong. 
I was more than happy with the final results.

Thanks, the emulators were YSS, and the shock HP. The drop-in, no drilling required Matris Kit is even better then any emulator set up. Agreed that when you get the suspension right, there's nothing more enjoyable.Way back around 2008 or so I had Todd install a cartridge emulator kit in my 2007 Norge along with a Hyperpro rear shock I also bought off of him....

No they are straight rate, but I've done a few of these, and they always impress me... both in ease of install, and ride.
