Title: Multistrada ohlins forks on s2r1k Post by: Alexaskmo on January 04, 2021, 11:22:41 PM Sooo, just got a pair of ohlins forks from a multistrada s 1000ds for super cheap. Now I was thinking of throwing them on my s2r1k. Any thoughts, straight swap or is this going to require a bit of work? :)

Plan b, what about as compared with the st3, would that make sense? :) Edit: unclear, I mean would putting the multi ohlins forks on an st3, does that swap make more sense?

I have a pair from an ST4, so if ST3 and ST4 are compatible - so are ST3 and S2R.
