Just curious if anyone knows why he’s not running with any KYB fork stickers now ?
Also looks like he may have gone a different route with internals ? Seems to have a anodised blue top on his forks now

I agree with above. If he's paying, he's not running logos. I don't even do fork stickers anymore. People can choose their own layout according to the graphics, since that's so imfuckinportant. Lol

You can order KYB Cartridge Kit for WP with anodised blue or red caps without extra costs from Technical Touch. Just mention it before placing the order

I’m just waiting to have this conversion done.
I’m glad you said this now because mine are at Technical Touch so hopefully I’ll get a choice

He running WP suspension now, I think forks have the kyb internals though, something along those lines.

Yea he’s on WP just using kyb internals but I thought he had changed again but I guess he’s still using the kyb internals

Yes from what Ive read and heard listening to podcasts, Chad is running WP outer tubes with KYB internals from Technical Touch mostly due to wall thicknesses and how the tubes were designed to flex better in unison with the Husky chassis ...better than the full on KYB forks he was trying out earlier in the year.
This is one of the main reasons I really prefer running stock triple clamps on all my bikes....had high doller ones from a few mfg's and always felt they hurt the handling and feel of the bike more than helped it.

I'm gonna have to roll with ya on this^^^
My last two bikes tried high end clamps, ended up going back to stock for better feel. Go figure...

Im with you on this to. I have the sfs neken clamps and when I switched back to the standard clamps I preferred them. I’m sure my clamps are the same offset as standard so it’s a bit odd
