Title: S4RS owners, question for you
Post by: TAftonomos on January 30, 2009, 07:37:56 PM
2 pieces of info I can't find, and I've been looking for awhile.

1st - what is the diameter of the forks at the lower triple?  56mm?

2nd, could you please measure the thickness of the lower triple, where the fork protrudes through.  Ie: I'm looking for the wall thickness where the lower is bored for the fork.  I suspect ducati uses the same castings for the s4r as they do the s4rs, and just bores the lower to 56mm to accommodate the forks.  Knowing this for sure would alleviate any concerns I have over the thickness of the lower triple if I bore it to 56mm.

Thanks!  [thumbsup]


edit - nevermind, ducati.com's parts list has both my triple and the s4rs triple as the same part number, so they are all 54mm.  [bang]

I've got a stock triple lying around if you were interested in keeping one unadulterated while you experiment with boring another one.   Not sure how much it's worth but we can work something out as it's just taking up space here.
