48 mm custom front fork Swedish suspension specialist Öhlins’ FGRT 300 front fork was originally developed for the Ducati Diavel. However, the special design and dimensions have got the attention of the world’s bike building community, with many using it for custom Harley applications. The black outer and gold inner tubes give “a certain look and feel” – one that looks “business-like” and speaks to the kind of performance and handling that many top-end customizers are looking for. Inside the FGRT 300, Öhlins use their popular and proven NIX technology, which separates the compression and rebound adjusters into each fork legs. This allows not only for a more precise functionality and for improved stability, but also a convenient placement of all adjustments at the top caps. The FGRT 300 front fork golden inner tubes drastically reduce friction, thereby letting the internals work better and with reduced component stress; response, precision, feel and durability are all greatly enhanced. Öhlins says the fork increases the grip, bump absorption and performance of the bike. That translates into increased comfort, tire feel and brake support.
