Motocorse SBK fork bottoms
The eagle has landed and OMG. These things look amazing! They looked awesome before but when they are on the forks it kicks it up a notch. I'm a super happy how they turned out. The forks were rebuilt with custom valving and black magic. Also added a travel indicator to the right leg so no more zipties lol.

The gold peeking through the fork bottom is beautiful

WOW, that is really GORGEOUS especially when compared to the stock Ohlins cast fork bottom side by side

 

[HKMP7]

Ohlins
I got some genuine Ohlins decals for the forks. Normally I don't like decals on the bike but these add a some WSBK flair to my front end. So I will be getting out a tape measurer rulers and a protractor to make sure they are put on there straight lol.

It looks like Motocorse want to "ahem" make a special edition out of your beautiful lower billet fork caliper bracket, by painting the Motocorse logo in RED and @Andy7 and me liked it too along with 202 others :

Perfect compliment to those Brembos!

Brembo Deutsch Motocorse Ohlins Raychem Staubli
These are some of the best in the business. All these brands scream quality. I wanted to do a test fit to see what my front end would eventually look like. I'm super happy with how this came out.

Hi HKMP7,

I just saw this Laser Marking Video on Facebook, might be applicable to your Fork:

Forks fitted
So I test fitted the forks with the motocorse fork bottoms and everything lines up and fits well. This is just a rough mock up of how the cables will be routed.

Now with the WSBK Ohlins decal lol

Yeah the bike has been in pieces for a while I haven't had the time to do anything.
TTT suspension did the work for me.

Brembo 16x18 Billet Clutch XR01151
Been waiting on this for a while here it is. The billet body should give the best feel of the available clutch masters. I mainly got it so it matches the brake master and gets rid of the cast stock unit. I got the long lever version which I prefer over the shorty. I love how Brembo "race" masters come standard with Ti pinch bolts. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is figuring out reservoir mounts.
Now the pictures.

Excellent quality machining

Proti lever pin, bleeder screw and lever bolt.

Those are nice Ive used something similar on a couple of my bikes.

I think I may do something like @Lucati but in titanium

STM inspection cover
Here is a bit of bling.
I ordered a new O-ring and Ill make sure to lube it up so it doesn't go on dry.
The machining on this thing is really nice and the black anodizing comes in clutch.

New factory o-ring part# 88610951A

I also changed the grease I use for the front and rear axle. This is the same grease Porsche uses on their GT cars with centerlock wheels.
