Great stability!
Attached by myself, hung the Frame, and managed to attach it without removing the tank.
I honestly don't want to do it again.
When I ordered, the machine was set up according to my weight and use, and I can ride comfortably with the pont included.
I was grateful to receive it more than a month earlier than the final delivery date.
I had adjusted the pre-road with OEM suspension, but there was a little slumping when going over bumps,
Changed to R2 and the suspension works well, stable and good ground feel.
It is an expensive item, so they pre-set it for me, making me feel special and satisfied.

Works well.
If you think you are sick of OHLINS, this is for you. It is a little cheaper than OHLINS and has better performance. View detail
All good.
The OEM suspension is very comfortable, but I often drive on mountain passes where the pavement conditions are not so good, and I am not satisfied with the various adjustments I have made. Decide to replace it.
I was torn between the standard OHLINS and NITRON, but after learning how easy it is to adjust from a person who has actually worn them, I decided to go with NITRON.
I thought R1Type would be enough, but I decided to go for R2Type with a little more than +30,000 because I thought it might be more fun if there were more points to adjust.
Order directly from NITRON Japan, write the car model, year, usage, weight, etc. Arrive about 2 months after the order is placed.

Not too difficult to install, but a hassle on the SCRAMBLER side.
The tool cannot pass through the screw at the bottom of the suspension without removing the rear step holder plate, which is co-tightened with the footpeg.
Practical
Very solid construction and details are very well finished, and that alone is very satisfying!
First of all, there is almost no sinkage when you straddle the car. Therefore, it feels as if the ride height has increased by +20-30mm.
When you start driving, you can clearly feel the difference! Especially when people often say "Communicating road surface information." is much higher. But it doesn't feel bothersome
I was more than happy to go to the usual rough and tumble pass
The Rebound is firm, so the bite on the road surface is dramatically improved, and even if the Corner is uneven, the dizzying sensation that existed in OEM is eliminated, and Axel Opening and Tipping can be done with confidence.
I feel less fatigue because I don't feel the OEM fluffiness (although the motorcycle is not that tiring to begin with).
The ease of adjustment, which is the best of all.
On the highway to and from UltraComfortSetting." On the pass, at the SportsSetting." If you have any concerns while driving, you can stop for a moment and click the Adjuster without tools, and you can adjust it easily and instantly even with gloves on.
Adjustment is also easy here, as there is a solid Click
[General]
Highly recommended!
Spring in turquoise blue looks great as a color insert (also available in black).
Since Manufacturer recommends 15,000 km or 2 years of maintenance, please take this into consideration.
*NITRON new purchases have a 36 month warranty period.

Change to ITRON from OHLINS
I've been using an OHLINSS46DR1S for a while now, but I've had to OH it more often than I'd like. When it is terrible, it is twice a year.
I have requested OH four times so far from G sennse, who is handled by webike.
Pillow ball (Spherical Bearing) After the 4th OH, I had the spherical bearing replaced with a normal one instead of Tight fit and it was fine.
However, once the trust was lost, it could not be recovered and it was decided to bring in another manufacturer.
I ordered a Hyper pro STREETBox Monoshock from webike and the delivery date was 4 months later. It was cancelled once.
So I ordered the ITRONR2 again from webike, because I heard that it has a shorter delivery time than the Hyper pro.
Ordered on 10/1. Due to repeated delivery delays, they said it would be mid-January. However, it arrived on 12/29 before the new year and was installed on 12/30.
NITRON imports the parts from the United Kingdom, and NITRONJapan assembles them to suit the needs of the Japanese.
Aluminum Cut-out body, beautiful.
You can change the orientation of the Hose freely. This was very useful for large installation.
Since Reserve tank and HPA are attached to Left Side, I removed the KIJIMAHelmet lock for Left and bought a new one for Right Side.
The installation is something I'm used to since I've removed the OHLINS many times. I was very careful not to scratch it.
The tightening torque is 34N-m.
After the shock absorber was installed, the reserve tank was positioned. A little circle of wisdom.
Once the location is decided, put a Sticker on the Reserve tank.
HPA Logo can be Left or Right, Quantity:Pair (for Left and Right) It's the other way around.
The Click is shaped for easy turning and can be adjusted quickly.
Test run after installation. So supple! What the hell is this!
The ride is like switching from a conventional train to a Shinkansen. It absorbs the Gap of the road flexibly.
You can open Throttle with confidence while banking, and the Right hand will not be able to control itself.
It is easy to get off at a traffic light and adjust.
It was worth the 3 month wait.
I can't wait for spring to come and enjoy the Kunekune.
It looks nice and austere.
I also like that fewer people wear them than OHLINS.
Recommendation
