Smooth as butter is how I would describe the Gold valves movement. Rebuilt 05 zx10r shock. Great stuff if your local tech can help because Race Tech tech support does not exist.
I did the Race tech schools back in '99 and rebuilt many shocks and forks in the day. A great product that really makes a difference. The best you know is what you know. Try Race Tech and feel the difference...
Thanks for that perspective my dude! Man, how would love to take of of those Race Tech classes to learn more. Or maybe I’ll just ask you too lol 👍🏼💨
@@GregHitchko It was a real hoot to meet Paul Thede back in the day. The schools were great and I learned lots.
@@calimark7448 That's awesome! I'll have to keep my eyes out for them if they come near me.
Did you ever came to the flow limit of 50mm WP piston one with the low friction piston bush ? I can agree when it comes to replacing plastic pistons or restrictive pistons. It is a nice piston but in many cases the same results can be achieved with OEM parts.
I got a Showa supension and want to add gold valves and tune to my weight how much you think in it would be in total to do at race tech
I'm going to do a test stock vs gold valves. I want to see/feel if there Is a positive difference with race tech
That would epic! Are you going to keep the same shim stack orientation and hurst do stock VS gold valve??
@@GregHitchko man I haven't even thought that far haha probably should get new shim stack too
@@kollinrose You will want a new shim stack. The old stack is made for the cheap valve. It may work but will not be optimal. best of luck.
@@calimark7448 hell yeah dude thanks I'll definitely do that
gold is more precise in expansion that any other metal. therefore the fit is maximised.
Very interesting fact right there! Thanks for sharing 💨💨
@@GregHitchko gold is one of the leas barometric metals.
@@888ssss right on! Can you explain what that means in this sense, I’d love to be able to understand better. Thanks!
@@GregHitchko it does not expand or contract as much as steel.
There is no "real gold" the gold color is because they are made from brass.
