The K-Tech GBS-019 slide bushing kit replaces the factory fork guide bushings on the Ducati Panigale 899 with precision-engineered components that deliver smooth, consistent travel from the first corner to the last — whether you are threading through a mountain pass or logging laps at the track.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardened steel construction with copper coating for outstanding resistance to corrosion and progressive wear, keeping the fork acting like new deep into the service interval.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePTFE-coated contact surfaces reduce friction to a minimum, so the fork glides through its travel without stiction — giving the rider confident, precise feedback through the bars at all times.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect OEM replacement: machined to exact original dimensions for a fit that needs no modification and restores factory feel immediately on fitment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete two-bushing set covers both fork legs in a single purchase, leaving nothing unfinished.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTight dimensional tolerances — 43.00 mm inner diameter, 47.00 mm outer diameter, 15.00 mm height, 2.00 mm wall thickness — ensure accurate centring and zero play.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBuild Quality and Performance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eK-Tech Suspension is respected in MotoGP and World Superbike paddocks for engineering that prioritises real-world feel over headline figures. The GBS-019 reflects that philosophy: the copper interlayer bonds metallurgically to the hardened steel body, preventing galvanic creep and micro-pitting even under the high side-loads the Panigale 899 generates through aggressive cornering. The PTFE surface layer handles the business end of every compression and rebound stroke, virtually eliminating the stick-slip behaviour that makes worn bushings so noticeable as fatigue sets in on a long ride. The result is a fork that responds proportionally, soaks up surface imperfections without drama, and lets the rider concentrate on riding rather than managing chassis vagueness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit is designed exclusively for the Ducati Panigale 899, model years 2013 to 2016. It replaces the original front fork guide bushings without modification. Installation requires specialist tools and correct torque procedures; K-Tech recommends fitment by an authorised K-Tech service centre to ensure optimal performance and safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInner diameter: 43.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOuter diameter: 47.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight: 15.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWall thickness: 2.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: hardened steel with copper coating and PTFE-coated contact surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: GBS-019\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuantity: 2 bushings (complete set for both fork legs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"K-Tech","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53168819142922,"sku":"GBS-019","price":71000.0,"currency_code":"UGX","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/GBSKIT_879143ec-797e-4938-857d-c01adcaa3435.png?v=1780816464","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-ug\/products\/k-tech-fork-slide-bushing-kit-ducati-panigale-899-gbs-019","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
