Sooo, just got a pair of ohlins forks from a multistrada s 1000ds for super cheap. Now I was thinking of throwing them on my s2r1k. Any thoughts, straight swap or is this going to require a bit of work? Smiley

Have you measured the length?  IIRC, Multi forks are longer...

Yup, longer, and MTS have model specific wheels, probably different disc offset, lots to check.

New wheel/suspension travel will be longer = bike sits higher to allow for the travel / fender & wheel hit the lower triple / suspension must be re-constructed to become shorter.

Ok,

Plan b, what about as compared with the st3, would that make sense? Smiley

Edit: unclear, I mean would putting the multi ohlins forks on an st3, does that swap make more sense?

Best,
Alex

I think so. I have a pair from an ST4, so if ST3 and ST4 are compatible - so are ST3 and S2R.
