I have Fichtel & Sachs S type forks on my 1990 K75RT. I Put in new progressive springs, and set them up properly last winter. Also put on a new rear shock. This worked out better than I dared expect. The Progressive springs and the setup was a huge improvement.
However I keep hearing that people find Showa superior to Fichtel & Sachs. I have nothing to compare, I have only tried the Fichtel & Sachs.
I would be interesting to hear, from those who have tried both types, if there is a big difference, and what kind of difference it is?
