Default Ohlins FKS 228 Front Cartridge Kit

I am looking to add the Ohlins FKS 228 NIX 22 Cartridge kit to my 2019 CVO Street Glide. No one, including Ohlns, seems to have them in stock and they are back ordered until May. Please PM me if you have a set or know of anyone who is sitting on a pile of these. I also need a set of the 08790-12 springs.

Thanks in advance.

I'd recommend Carol Burks and I've dealt with both.

Quick google search revealed several places that had them...varying in price from mid 700s to mid 900s.
EBay even has them from a place in Italy...

That being said...I know many places will allow you to “put items in your cart” even though they’re not in stock...so call/email to verify.

Good luck.

Cycle Solutions let me put them in my cart, and get to the end of Check Out

Would not surprise me, though, my 044 rears took 3 months to get. Glad I already have my NiX cartridges Just wanted to rub it in a bit.

Good luck

Before you give ANY money to big bear performance , do some research on their past practices of customer support !

They were previously known as big bear choppers.

I filled out the order form on his website and he said he would review it on Wednesday.
