Specifically designed for Italian bikes with playful forks, the BITUBO fork friction kit for Ducati 1098/848 restores order in the contact between the slider and the tube. Ideal for those seeking a smoother riding sensation without modifying the cartridge, this kit equips the friction points with treated materials to reduce movement resistance.

The BITUBO kit includes:

• Bushings with a special antifriction coating
• Seals with a treatment that reduces friction

These components limit "stiction," which can result in jolts when passing over imperfections. In road use on roadsters or sport machines derived from the 1098/848, they contribute to a more homogeneous glide of the sliders and participate in a more predictable fork behavior, both in the city and on highways. This maintenance kit is useful during a fork disassembly or seal replacement.
