[QUOTE="MCRIDER007, post: 1271127, member: 329"] Per Dan at Traxxion and Barry at GP Suspension, the left cartridge is "dead" with no damping at all, that is why the Gen2 AK-20s have to be modified to fit the Gen3s. GP suspension claims they were able to improve the damping in the right cartridge by changing the shim stacks (which isn't possible on the Gen1 and Gen2s) but it was either a very small improvement or not enough profit because they are not selling a fork kit for the Gen3 right fork. They are selling total replacement 25mm cartridges with rebound damping on one side and compression damping on the other side (same damping arrangement as the Gen3 AK-20s). [/QUOTE]
