DescriptionThe whole story▼
Precision-engineered fork slide bushes built specifically for the Honda CBR 1000 RR-R SC82 (2020–2026), the K-Tech SBS-022 kit replaces the OEM guides with hardened steel, copper-coated and PTFE-lined components that measurably reduce friction and restore factory-correct fork action — a fundamental step in any serious suspension service or upgrade programme.
Key Features
- Direct OEM replacement: drop-in fit for the Honda CBR 1000 RR-R SC82 (2020–2026) with no modification required.
- Hardened steel construction with copper coating delivers outstanding durability and resistance to wear under sustained track and road loads.
- PTFE-coated contact surfaces minimise friction at the fork tube interface, improving initial sensitivity and mid-stroke response.
- Complete two-bush kit covers a full fork service in a single purchase — no need to source individual pieces.
- Manufactured by K-Tech Suspension, a specialist suspension brand trusted by professional race teams worldwide.
Performance & Build Quality
The CBR 1000 RR-R SC82 runs a high-specification Showa Balance Free Front Fork (BFF), and the condition of its slide bushes has a direct influence on chassis feedback. Standard bushes can develop play or increased friction through normal use, causing vague turn-in and reduced small-bump sensitivity. The K-Tech SBS-022 bushes address this at the source: the hardened steel body resists deformation under lateral load, while the copper underlay provides a self-lubricating base layer. The outer PTFE coating keeps dynamic friction to a minimum, so the fork tracks surface irregularities accurately rather than skating over them.
With an inner diameter of 41.70 mm, outer diameter of 44.70 mm, height of 20.00 mm and wall thickness of 1.50 mm, these bushes are machined to tight tolerances — dimensions that match the SC82 fork tube specification exactly.
Road & Track Use
Whether the CBR 1000 RR-R is used on circuit or public road, worn slide bushes manifest as steering imprecision and a loss of confidence under braking. Replacing them with the K-Tech SBS-022 kit reinstates the front-end clarity the platform is known for. For track-day riders undertaking a full suspension refresh, fitting fresh slide bushes alongside new fork oil and seals is considered best practice — and the K-Tech kit provides the geometry-critical component of that service.
Fitment & Compatibility
This kit is designed exclusively for the following motorcycle:
- Honda CBR 1000 RR-R SC82 (2020–2026)
Do not fit to any other Honda CBR variant or model year outside this range; fork dimensions differ and the bushes will not seat correctly.
Installation requires specialist tools and suspension knowledge. K-Tech recommends fitment is carried out by an authorised K-Tech Service Centre.
