Hi Eno,
I have just been speaking to Walter at YSS and he tells me that you have his fork upgrade on your CZ. Can you please explain what it is and how you have found it so far.

Thanks Ji

Hey there Ji, yep cartridge emulators are good, after awhile you just forget they are there doing their thing, shuttling the fork fluid in a nice controled manner.

I wrote about it once before, right here in the CZ pages:

Hi Eno,
Good to hear from you again,
That sounds like it cost you a lot of money.
Walter told me how much those things cost are they really worth it.
I picked up my bike yesterday and have already started the tear down.

Hey Eno,
Do you have a spare alloy 74/75 tank you don't need?

Over time you can do it, I'm broke & haven't bought anything new for a long time apart from cheap whiskey & new strings for my guitar.  :D

You'd be surprized how cheap new fork tubes are, it's the only way you can easily install Emulators on a CZ - you gotta have a constant internal bore size in the tubes.  YSS PD valves are cheaper than the 'Gold Valves' I believe.
Talk to Mark at Nortwest CZ & Maico.

Cartridge Emulators are worth every cent.  ;)

Haha... no spare alloy tanks, sorry.  I have thought long & hard about ways to reproduce them but it'll probably never happen, don't be shy of paying too much for a good one as they will only get harder to get.

Gotta run before the Boss shuts me down.

New CZ fork tubes are about $325.00USD for a pair that is $653.00AUD delivered.
Wow that is cheap.
Do they come in gold and black chrome.

How much did you pay for yours Eno.
