For pre-M-8 touring models , the company is offering to " improve comfort , control and safety " with its Eagle cartridges , specifically designed to improve the feel and control of the Harley-Davidson front end . A modification kit that is designed to transform the adjustment-free original forks into fully adjustable front forks , the Eagle replaces the entire original cartridge for " greater precision and better performance ." " Thanks to the compression and rebound adjustments ( 40 positions ), finding the ideal setting for the individual ' s driving style is intuitive and fast . With customized settings based on the weight and riding style of each rider , Eagle cartridges give immediate advantages in terms of handling and feeling . " The minimal , elegant design is designed with attention to the smallest detail by the Mupo Custom style center in Italy . Thanks to the wide range of Mupo springs available , dealers can custom-order the cartridge according to rider weight and riding style preferences ."
