I call Dan Kyle to see about adapting Ohlins 1000rr forks to my 954 because, Ohlins doesn't make R&T forks for the 954 anymore.
He says, hey, I probably have enough spare parts to build one more set, they'd be used and run you $1700.
The down side is that I'd have to wait a few months for some new parts to arrive from Sweden to finish the build.
No big deal, I wasn't in a hurry anyway.
Long story short, they are used/new ohlins R&T forks with 2006 Superbike valving and what Dan thought would be the best setup for trackdays and street riding.

the end result is full ohlins suspension tailored to my weight, and riding requirements.
the suspension travel is more linear than progressive due to the new linkage.
finished product:
