I bought a set of showa ohlins converted forks off ebay but I have some concerns that they may not have been converted. The rebound adjusters on the top of the forks look exactly the same as the ones found on showa forks plus the number of clicks for compress is different on each fork, 15 on one and 17 on the other.

Should they have the ohlins rebound adjusters…?

I guess the numbers of click should be the same on both ….?

I have Showas with full Ohlins conversion done (stage 4) & they look just the same as before !

You need to ask what was done as you can get various different stages done , might only have springs/oil done !!

Check out the link to see the different stages

Had my showas 'converted' to Ohlins, this was basically a spring and valve change with 5W oil I think, still look the same except had nitrided sliders done at the same time.

Hope that helps.
