Installation thread for Debrix fork cartridge emulators - Group buyers

[Robbus]

Re front spindle:I think they're called spanners    nice & low tech on the 600.

Well I'll be, I've got some of them spanner things!


There's potential for strapping the front end up to a roof beam in the garage so I might just be over those first two hurdles, merely leaving total incompetence to get in the way of everything else :rollin


Cheers,
Rob

Hmm, make sure your garage setup leaves the bike stable, it would be fairly disastrous if it isn't...


Ok that's probably everyone for the group buy, even if anyone drops out I'm fairly sure I can find alternative buyers for the emus

Plus three others from the SV650 site (and another two reserves who aren't 100% certain).
I'll hopefully order them within the next few days, no idea how long it'll take them to arrive, shouldn't take too long. Or how much import duty HM Customs will bone us for the pleasure  :eek

I will also launch a separate thread on this site soon which will address everyone's experiences / problems / issues regarding installation in an attempt to make sure everyone sets these things up correctly once they receive them (although in truth the emus are very easy - the most difficult factors are getting the damper rods out & drilling them). Also for future reference, if anyone starts off with standard springs but becomes interested in the likes of linear fork springs such as K-tech I might be able to get some discount on them.

front end of mine is rubbish.. is it too late to add myself to this?

[kebab19]

Coupcoup,
Not too late, but you are the last person who has made boarding 

So that's eight Fazer & five sv650 owners for this particular Group Buy


PLEASE NOTE: To assist with DEBRIX emu installation I have updated my original Gold Valve Emulator thread.

Same here.

[69oldskool]

Same here cheers

[kebab19]

Will do.
Judging from previous Group buys, it takes about 7-10 days for Debrix to acquire the emulators from their manufacturer(s) in the far East, then another week for shipping them across the pond to the UK. 

[kebab19]

Emus are now on their way over to the UK  just the Customs men to get past

Dayum, i jumped on the Fazer bandwagon a big late.

[kebab19]

Ah, you never know, someone might pull out

[Fuzzy]

Great, that's good news 

[wezdavo]

nice one

Dayum, i jumped on the Fazer bandwagon a big late.

me too, another time maybe.

[kebab19]

Once the initial group have fitted their emus & reported back their findings, I'll probably organise a second batch if there's enough interest.


Oh yeah, just to say I have a spare set of forks / damper rods in the unlikely event anyone f888ks their emu installation up.
Also, I have 2 pairs of rusted TRX850 forks in the shed & it looks like the damper rods could be fairly easily adapted to fit the Fazers. So drill with calculated abandon  :lol

[kebab19]

Well the Emulators have finally arrived 

Am going to work shortly, won't be home till late so sorry but can't PM everyone today - will hopefully have much more time tomorrow morning!

[Fuzzy]

Yay! Good news 

[wezdavo]

Good stuff kebab, pm me

[Tefer]

Hey,


I dunno when i'll get round to fitting these, have a to get front brakes sorted up before anything else, if Thunderpatz or BBB would use the set I got you to get quicker then happy to give them up.


If not PM me and i'll get cash to you.
