The KroozR Showa TAC Conversion Kit replaces the standard TAC air fork system with a coil spring and cartridge setup, delivering consistent performance, improved reliability, and a more predictable front-end feel.

KroozR Showa TAC Air Fork to Coil Spring Conversion Kit – Kawasaki KXF450 (2015–2018)

Overview

This conversion kit replaces the Showa TAC air fork system with a traditional preload-adjustable steel coil spring and cartridge assembly. The pneumatic system is removed entirely, with compression damping in one leg and rebound damping in the other.

The result is a more stable and consistent fork with reduced maintenance and improved rider confidence.

Spring Rate Recommendation

General Riding and Motocross Applications

These recommendations are a guide only. Fork spring selection depends on rider weight, speed, and riding style. For example, a 72kg professional rider may require a stiffer spring than indicated due to higher corner entry speeds and increased impact loads.

All rider weights referenced are without riding gear.

For veteran or C-grade riders on 450cc machines, a softer spring rate than standard may provide improved comfort. For example, a 90kg rider may achieve a plusher ride using a 0.96 kg/mm spring.
