Engineered from the ground up for the S and R models of the 1299 series, this kit replaces the factory internals with a patented Direct Damping System that transforms the front end's composure under hard braking and mid-corner load alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatented Direct Damping System (DDS) eliminates cavitation for consistent, fade-free damping even under sustained track abuse.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20 mm main piston paired with a 31 mm control piston delivers high oil-flow capacity and near-instant damping response.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30-click independent compression and rebound adjustment lets you dial in settings with professional precision.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18 mm preload adjustment range accommodates a wide spread of rider weights and spring rates.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAsymmetric cartridge architecture improves dynamic response and reduces damping lag through high-speed transitions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRace-proven at British Superbike Championship and Isle of Man TT level — the same hardware trusted by professional teams.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBuild Quality and Premium Materials\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe DDS Closed Cartridge Kit reflects K-Tech's commitment to producing suspension components that hold up to the most demanding environments in motorsport. Every internal component is manufactured to tolerances that mirror dedicated race-shop work, not aftermarket compromise. The closed cartridge architecture keeps the damping circuit fully sealed, protecting the internals from contamination and maintaining calibrated performance across the full service interval. The 32 mm outer diameter and 716 mm overall length are sized precisely for the Panigale 1299 S fork tubes, so installation is clean and straightforward without the improvisation that plagues poorly specced kits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePerformance on Road and Track\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Direct Damping System sits at the heart of what makes this cartridge exceptional. By routing oil through the 31 mm control piston, K-Tech's patented layout generates damping forces directly — without the pressure-loss inefficiencies inherent in conventional shim-stack designs. The result is a fork that feels planted and communicative rather than vague and unpredictable. Compression and rebound are each adjustable through 30 clicks, giving you a broad but finely graduated tuning window that suits everything from a smooth trackday set-up to an aggressive qualifying trim. The suggested baseline of 16 compression clicks, 18 rebound clicks and 10 mm preload gives most riders an excellent starting point, with the 18 mm preload range covering the spring-rate changes that come with different 36-260 series spring selections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cartridge kit is designed and validated specifically for the following motorcycle:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDucati Panigale 1299 S — model years 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso suited to the Panigale 1299 R variants sharing the same front fork specification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e155-012-070-020\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSystem\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDirect Damping System (DDS) closed cartridge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInner diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e32 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e716 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompression adjustment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 clicks (suggested baseline: 16 clicks)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRebound adjustment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 clicks (suggested baseline: 18 clicks)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePreload adjustment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18 mm range (suggested baseline: 10 mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpring series compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e36-260 series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"K-Tech","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53168821895434,"sku":"155-012-070-020","price":247700.0,"currency_code":"BDT","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/DDS3_3924e9d2-6200-4bc9-ba66-854dc1d32300.png?v=1780816581","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-bd\/products\/k-tech-dds-closed-cartridge-kit-ducati-panigale-1299-155","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
