Built to the same exacting tolerances expected on one of the most capable supersports on the road or track, these bushings are a safety-critical component — correct fitment ensures predictable steering geometry, progressive damping response, and the kind of front-end confidence that matters most when corner entry speeds are high.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafety-grade direct replacement: engineered as a precise OEM substitute for the Ducati Panigale V4 front fork, preserving factory-spec geometry and damping characteristics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardened steel construction with copper coating provides maximum structural integrity and strong resistance to corrosion under sustained use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePTFE-coated contact surfaces minimise friction between fork leg and slider, delivering smoother, more consistent fork action and improved rider feedback.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured to exact dimensional tolerances — inner diameter 41.70 mm, outer diameter 44.70 mm, height 20.00 mm, wall thickness 1.50 mm — ensuring a precise, rattle-free fit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete service kit: two bushings included, covering a full fork service in a single purchase.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBuild Quality \u0026amp; Performance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SBS-022 bushings combine hardened steel with a copper corrosion-protection layer, then add a PTFE sliding surface to the bore. This three-layer approach is not accidental: the steel carries structural load, the copper guards against moisture ingress in adverse conditions, and the PTFE keeps stiction to a minimum so the fork responds to even the subtlest inputs. The result is a front end that moves freely and consistently rather than binding or spiking under braking — exactly what a Panigale V4 demands at speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRoad \u0026amp; Track Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether the V4 sees weekend track days at Silverstone or daily road riding, worn or substandard fork bushings progressively degrade steering precision and can introduce unwanted play into the front axle. Replacing them at the correct service interval with quality K-Tech components maintains the handling envelope the Panigale V4 was designed around. Professional installation at an authorised K-Tech Service Centre is strongly recommended; specialist tools and technical knowledge are required for a safe, correct fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit is designed exclusively for the following model:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDucati Panigale V4 — all variants, model years 2018 to 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eDo not fit to any other model or year range outside this specification.
