Exclamation Learned some very interesting Moton info at PRI

Starting in the new year, the Club Sport model line will become essentially identical to the 2 way Motorsports model line. The canisters will become orange, and will all be 15 way adjustable instead of 7 way....all without any appreciable price increase.

15 way adjustability on both compression & rebound rather than 7. More finely tuned adjustments.

My perspective is that, when a maker of a permium product in its field offers what is a much better product for the same price, it is very interesting.

I agree, this is very interesting!!

I thought there were more differences like the steel vs aluminum.

I don't know about that. They did say the new Cluub Sports will be all anodized orange like the Motorsports models. You are probably correct, as I believe the Motorsports models are aluminum, but I was more focused on the revised valving & adjustability going forward, for the same price.
