Fork Cartridge Dampers
Damper rod forks are notorious for being both too harsh yet too easy to bottom. This is the nature of damper rod fixed orifice forks.
Cartridge Emulators make damping rod style forks perform like well-tuned cartridge forks. These tunable valves sit on top of the damping rods and are held in place by the main springs. This makes them both simple to install and completely tunable for all conditions and rider preferences.
- Race Tech's original bolt-on fork valving system for front cartridge forks
- Triple the flow area of stock pistons
- Put valving control on the shim stack
- Outstanding tunability, improved control, traction, plushness and bottoming resistance
- Complete instructions, Gold Valve pistons, valving charts, valving shims
The Cogent Dynamics DDC valves are the most cost-effective upgrade you can make to your motorcycle’s forks. Unique and the first of its kind, a DDC kit is available to upgrade many motorcycles that are originally equipped with simple damper rod type forks as front suspension.
We do recommend stiffer than stock front springs to bring the full potential of the DDCs out. Up to about 200 pounds (rider with gear on) we recommend the .85 kg/mm springs. If you are above 200 pounds (rider with gear on) you should probably go with the 1.0 kg/mm springs.

Combo Kits include both Compression as well as Rebound/Mid-Valve Kits with a significant cost savings over purchasing these kits separately. In the "good 'ole days" we got away with just Compression Valving improvements. However, Rebound/Mid-Valves are critical for any modern hi-performance valving setup.
Type 3 Gold Valves are the latest version of our bolt-on fork valving system for cartridge forks. Gold Valves significantly improve the flow over stock pistons, putting valving control on the shim stack instead of the piston. This results in outstanding tuneability, improved control, traction, plushness and bottoming resistance.
Includes detailed online instructions, Gold Valve Pistons, Valving Shims, and access to the Digital Valving Search (DVS) which provides specific valving stacks for your exact weight, skill and riding conditions.

Use this installation tool from Cogent to be sure that your Cogent Drop-in Dynamic Cartridges are installed correctly. A strong magnet in the end holds the cartridge firmly while you lower it into your fork leg. Then slide the spring over the tool until it holds the DDC down, then gently remove the tool. That simple. Never again question if it is properly seated on the damper rod.
Works equally well for removal when you need to change your fork oil. Also works great with Race Tech Emulators.

The Cogent Dynamics kit is a simple and effective way to improve the damping for your Africa Twin forks. The AT-1 kit includes two new replacement fork base valves to completely revalve your forks in a straightforward pre-assembled kit. This kit is the adventure proven and suspension dynamometer tested kit for your CRF1000L front suspension. It uses new CNC aluminum damping pistons, valve stacks and check systems which come to you pre-assembled onto a base valve adjuster housing. This means you won't need a micrometer and valve shim experience to achieve the results you need. The Africa Twin 45mm upside-down fork uses sealed top cartridges.
This unique arrangement allows Africa Twin owners to do a simple disassembly of the fork, removing the cartridge and replacing the stock base valve assembly. Your stock valving assembly can be retained while the new AT-1 kit improves your suspension performance.
We suggest installation of stiffer fork springs along with the Revalve Kit.
