RT-Es are the best thing to happen to the RG chassis since the Fox shock.  Properly set up, they reward an aggressive rider with great traction and feedback, resulting in increased cornering speed and braking control.  However, they don't just drop in and SHAZAM!, you have an F-1 Showa front end.  Here's what I do:

1.  Dismantle fork assys.

2.  Machine 6 new holes in each damper rod to bypass original compression damping.

3.  De-burr and clean damper rods.

4.  Shorten stock spring to increase spring rate 10%.

5.  Cut new spacers for correct preload with emulators in place and shorter springs.

6.  Adjust RT-Es for correct valve spring preload to regulate compression damping.

7.  Install Lance Gamma block-off caps to allow removal of anti-dives bypassed by RT-Es.

8.  Re-assemble fork stanchions, sliders and dampers.

9.  With RT-Es in place, add new wt. fork oil to new level setting, depending on setup.

10. Install springs, spacers and caps, making final adjustments on preload.

I've known Paul Thede for 11 years.  His commitment to excellence in innovation is legendary.  However, the function of the RT-E is greatly dependent upon development time with your own bike's unique requirements.  After working with the RT-E in my personal RGs for over three years, I have come to terms with all the variables that blend into a properly dialed in fork.  As a service, I charge $325.00 including parts, labor and return freight(48 states) to perform the work listed above.
