Default Racetech gold valves

49mm Racetech Gold Valves. Removed from my 2015 FXDL. Can include damping tube already ported per Racetech instructions and OEM progressive wound springs. These were removed when I installed Ohlins NIX30 cartridges from Howard.
These valves make a huge difference. They remove the harshness of the factory set up, making ride much more comfortable.
$100.00 shipped to USA 48.

I'll get some soon. Right now they're still sitting in a bucket of fork oil as I just finished the Ohlins cartridge install. They look just like the picture on Racetech website. They are only about a year old. I can say they made a tremendous improvement.

They really are and the 2015 OEM springs I'm including for free aren't bad. They are a progressive wind. Very comfortable with little brake dive. But my new NIX-30's are soooo much better, but I'm into them almost $1800.

Are you willing to ship to Canada? I can cover the extra shipping.

I'm interested, especially if they include the right dampers for my bike, since I don't have a way to drill them properly myself. I have Progressive brand heavy duty springs in there now, so I don't need the springs. I would really like to get the ohlins cartridges but I can't afford them.

EDIT: Bah, they are different.

I believe the valves will fit any 49mm fork, which I think your bike has. You can also weld the damping holes shut, as the idea is to make the damper rod damping ineffective.

I can ship to Canada no problem. I think postal is the best way to avoid duties.

The exchange rate and shipping make it so that this will cost almost as much as buying them new for me. I was mainly interested because of the damper since that was stopping me from buying them before. I wasn't really planning on doing forks just yet anyway. Sorry I wasted your time, this won't work for me.

EDIT: I'm assuming these are what we're talking about: https://fortnine.ca/en/race-tech-gol...-fork-emulator
