Re: [DucatiST] 2007 ST3 ABS fork

 

So I've had it wrong? Unthinkable! I could have sworn I heard/read "Ohlins suspension" in Ducati lit but I guess that is technically true even if its just the shock.

I'll try to search the web when I get to a real computer... This why I save my sales brochures!

Even if the fork is original, the bike still has handling/tire wear issues and I'll feel more comfortable when I track them down.

Thanks
Reed

I believe the "s" front forks are TiN coated Showas, not Ohlins.

Umm guys I have to ask a pretty basic question. My understanding was that 2007 ST3 ABS came with Ohlins suspension. My rear shock certainly displays the Ohlins colors but on the forks the only thing gold is the male section of the USD fork. The guy I use for my BMW scratched his head and said "Zat does not look like Ohlins to me".  Is there a way I can tell if my fork is original?

The bike is wearing the front tire a little weirdly (much more just left of center) and feels different on right and left turns - I have seen some fairing brackets slightly bent. How rough a life did this thing have in the 2700 miles before I bough it?

Feeling paranoid
