Upgrading my 2019 suspension.
Looked at other brands, but found US distributor with good discount. Contacted Ohlins tech support to confirm all parts needed including springs for my weight and full leathers.
Rear shock installed in less than hour. Working on forks now with one down and one to go. Also installing KTM billet triple tree while everything is apart.
Parts needed for KTM 790
Rear Shock
- p/n KT790 (remote reservoir model)
Fork Cartridges
- p/n FKS513 (spring kit sold separately)
Spring Kit
- p/n 08423-80 (rider weight plus full gear 110 kg plus)
- p/n 08423-70 (rider weight plus full gear 70-100 kg)
- p/n 08423-60 (rider weight full plus full gear 50-70 kg)
Fluids
- 01309-01 Fork oil (tech spec'd 2 bottles; however looking like one 1 suffice and have spare for fluid change next time)
Steering Bearing Kit
- All Balls Tappered rollers. (Yet to verify correct one, but research indicates correct one)
- p/n AB221026
