KTM 1290 Super Duke R
Italian suspension specialist Matris has new applications available to improve the front and rear suspension on the 2020 - 2022 KTM 1290 Super Duke R . For the front forks , and featuring the Matris " Quad Valve System ", the F25R-X 25 mm cartridge allows full adjustment of compression , rebound and preload . For even further improvement in suspension response and handling , Matris ' top of the range sealed and pressurised asymmetric F25SA hydraulic cartridge avoids the risk of fluid cavitation and offers greater and easier tuning of the suspension set-up . It decreases the weight by using lightweight alloy oxidation surface treatment for all the components -
LV Corsa Black Edition
Italian exhaust specialist LeoVince describes its new LV Corsa ' Black Edition ' as the " maximum expression of racing technology brought to the road . We developed it in collaboration with the best teams in the World Championships , to give riders the same racetrack sensation in every corner of their daily ride . " Conceived without compromise , the shape is inspired by the same exhausts we manufacture for some of the best teams in the racing world - simple , compact , essential . We chose AISI 304 stainless steel to give riders the durability and resistance to corrosion they want and are introducing a deep matt black : a ceramic-based paint that enhances its shape with a more aggressive look , giving you the best ensuring long-term product reliability and durability . The design allows rapid disassembly of the hydraulic cartridge unit without removing the fork , is supplied with specific high-sliding fluid and is especially suitable for sports and racing use . Both cartridges replace all the original internal fork parts and are ready to fit without any modification to the original fork . For sport riders seeking to reduce front wheel shake to provide greater stability at high speed , Matris also recommends its fully adjustable " speed sensitive system " SDR or SDK steering damper - an easy install onto the original supports . For the rear , Matris ' co-owner Alberto Turcato recommends either its mid-level M46K or M46R toplevel shock absorber upgrades . Both are multi-adjustable in compression , rebound , length and preload , and equipped with a knob-hydraulic spring preload unit . The ' R ' is a ' tour de force ' - it has an aluminium alloy cylinder with lapped finish and hard oxidation surface treatment . The 46 mm piston with ' flow dynamics ' is specially designed for better control of the suspension ' s movement and a 16 mm high tensile alloy steel piston rod with hard chrome coating has a lapped finish with PVD TIN ( Titanium Nitride ) surface treatment . Like all of Matris ' premium shocks , the M46R is fully rebuildable and revalveable . The silicone chromium alloy steel spring is available in different rates based on the bike model and weight , and the separate N2
resistance to high temperatures and scratches . " The end cap has a laser-etched LV racing logo and the three debossed shapes for that unmistakable extreme racing look . The handmade TIG welds require specialised welders and provide the highest quality
gas pressurised expansion tank features a fully floating piston . " Our computerised engineering systems are used to design and produce all the components and we only use materials of high-end technical and mechanical characteristics ," says Alberto . " High-precision machining reduces weight and friction to improve sliding , high temperature stability , and the effectiveness of fine damping adjustments to ensure the greatest sensitivity and confidence to the rider and excellent stability of the rear axle . With both our M46 shock absorbers , the difference in damping is easily perceptible with every click of adjustment ."

joints - our guarantee of best quality and durability . The laser-etched LV logo stands out in the black of the exhaust sleeve , guaranteeing all-Italian design . " The voice of the LV Corsa Black Edition is just as unmistakable . Developing this exhaust , we used an open shape body that allows the rapid and direct flow of the exhaust gases , tuning the LV Corsa Black Edition voice to the deepest and the most race-like notes : the real sound of the racetrack , without compromise . " High temperature resistant LV Corsa grade one titanium and 2x2 twin pre-peg carbon fibre versions also available - to give riders the performance , durability , corrosion resistance and choice they want ".
