Above is the Ohlins (20mm) “FOR THE STOCK STEEL CARTRIDGE” 4 piston kit that has everything from the stem off, all though better it still leaves you with non adjustable compression and rebound from the outside (Except for 2017).

 

It’s way better in the FZ09 fork to just replace the whole cartridge and springs like listed above so everything within the shells are new from the top cap to the bottom bolt, updated and improved whole systems.

 

 

31)

 

We also sell other Piston kits, many from the stem off as shown above and are very good. This would go into the standard Yamaha steel 20mm cartridge like the piston kit above also

 

All though better it still leaves you with non adjustable compression and rebound from the outside (Except for 2017).
