Lowering SET - 30mm Extreme cartridge and shock absorber for KTM 790 Adventure R (2019-)
This Touratech Suspension Extreme SET lowers the suspension by 30mm, representing the absolute premium class in suspension technology. This Extreme shock absorber and Extreme cartridge for the KTM 790 / 890 Adventure R are perfectly designed for touring and riding with frequently and dramatically changing load and riding conditions, or for extreme requirements.
Put simply, the Extreme cartridge is a shock absorber for the fork. The closed cartridge is installed in the original fork. This means that the triple clamp/handlebar mount, brakes, wheel guidance, and steering geometry remain fully intact. No additional modifications to the fork are required. This closed cartridge is perfectly designed for touring and riding with frequently and dramatically changing load and riding conditions, or for the most extreme requirements.
The Extreme shock absorber features the PDS, a hydraulic bottom-out protection system that uses a second damper piston. Even in the most extreme road conditions with a full load of luggage, bottoming out won't occur, preventing mechanical overload of the shock absorber. The damping is travel-dependent. During most riding conditions, the shock absorber is adjusted comfortably and effortlessly before the PDS intervenes in the final part of the shock absorber stroke.
What this means for you: Any luggage volume, from the tail bag to the loaded luggage system and/or pillion, is accommodated by the Extreme adjustment range. The motorcycle's balance can be easily and quickly restored by you using the handwheel via the hydraulic spring preload. The very finely adjustable damping on the expansion tank allows for effective, precise suspension settings tailored to your personal riding style at any time, regardless of road conditions and intended use, whether on motorways/highways, federal highways, short country roads, off-road sections, long-distance trips with large luggage, or a fast, ambitious riding style.
You will experience a completely new riding experience with your motorcycle.
The basic setup installed here is designed for riders up to 100 kg plus luggage. Adjustments for significantly higher payloads or other exceptional requirements are possible. We will then customize the shock absorber to your individual needs.
We recommend that you have the conversion carried out by a specialist workshop.
Note: The side stand and center stand may need to be adjusted in length.
