The Type 3 Gold Valve Combo Kit is Race Tech’s original bolt-on fork valving system for cartridge forks. Once installed, the Gold Valve Kit offers outstanding tuneability, improved control, better traction, a plush suspension, and increased bottoming resistance. Race Tech does it by using their Gold Valves kits for both compression and rebound. The Compression Gold Valve in this kit comes with a personalized valving setup for your weight and riding style, greatly increasing your suspension’s resistance to bottoming out. Rebound valving, frequently called the “mid-valve”, is the section of the stack that controls how plush your suspensions feels, which can also have a large effect on traction. In this video, Charles shows how to install Race Tech Gold Valve Fork Kit on a 2021 Honda CRF450R, but the steps shown will be similar for most motorcycle forks.
