Rcatech emulators on a R100RS

[Zwicky, Eric]

Thanks Bill,

Since the fairing is off (whole bike needs to be painted), once it's 
back on I don't want to ever take it off again :)   Well unless 
absolutely necessary.

So I am looking now at all the things that the fairing might make more 
difficult later.

Will the Racetech upgrade require complete fork disassembly, or can I 
leave the tubes on?    I think the latter, right?

The RaceTech springs as well. The upgrade is noticed more in how the bike handles than in ride quality over the bumpy stuff.   It is difficult to say whether or not the Progressive spring will live in harmony with the emulator.  Depends on which factory technician you might ask.
