[QUOTE="RM_guy, post: 1407731, member: 20652"] You are talking about fork sub-tanks and they have been around for years. In a nut shell they add extra air into the system with adjustable valving that makes them speed sensitive so they react softly on slow speed hits but are stiffer on high speed hits. They work amazingly well. I have a set of Enzo sub-tanks on my bike and they work great. For the Enzo tanks you have to drill out the air bleed screw and add a fitting for the tank hoses. This is what you want. The other brands just screw into the bleed screw. The problem with that is the air bleed hole is too small to let enough air through and the hole becomes an orifice that restricts the air flow too much. The tanks have valving in them to adjust the ride but the small bleed hole renders the adjustable valving ineffective and you loose the speed sensitivity. The other brands work OK but if you really want adjustability and the full affect of what the tanks can do, get the Enzo sub-tanks. [/QUOTE]
