Built to the same dimensional tolerances as the original Ducati fork guide bushes, these hardened-steel components with copper undercoat and PTFE contact surfaces ensure the fork operates safely within specification for every mile from road to track.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured from hardened steel with a copper undercoat for exceptional wear resistance and long service life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePTFE-coated contact surfaces reduce friction to a minimum, delivering smooth, precise fork travel and improved suspension response.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExact OEM replacement dimensions (43.00 mm inner diameter, 47.00 mm outer diameter, 15.00 mm height, 2.00 mm wall thickness) — no modification required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete two-bush set for a full, immediate fork service.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned exclusively for the Ducati Panigale V4 S (2018–2024) to guarantee correct fit and safe operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBuild Quality \u0026amp; Performance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eK-Tech Suspension is a globally respected name in precision suspension components, supplying World Superbike and British Superbike teams as well as discerning road riders. The GBS-019 kit reflects that pedigree: the hardened steel construction resists the constant lateral and axial loads generated through hard braking and cornering, while the copper undercoat provides an additional layer of protection against corrosion and surface fatigue. The PTFE coating on the bearing faces dramatically reduces stiction — the sticky, hesitant fork movement that can mask road feedback and delay suspension reaction. The result is a fork that moves freely, responds honestly, and keeps the front tyre in contact with the road where it belongs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSafety \u0026amp; Installation Note\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFork guide bushes are a safety-critical component. Worn or incorrectly fitted bushes can cause imprecise steering, increased fork flex, and unpredictable handling. K-Tech specifies that installation of the GBS-019 kit must be carried out by an authorised K-Tech Service Centre. Specialist tooling and technical expertise are required to achieve the correct interference fit and ensure safe, lasting performance.
