Good stuff!

For better understanding let me say that the translation for GGV is 'Fork-Slide-Improver'.
I don't think its silicon-based, this would be too easy to copy I guess and the company (a small one) doesn't talk about their secrets.
Some guys from the many in Germany who use this, say that Caramba 70, WD40 or Ballistol (cleaner for weapon) give the same result.
But everyone is enthusiastic after they'd try it for the first time, with only the Triumph riders say that at the usd's from the Triumph the result is not as good as with others, even when the fork after applying it feels better than before.
But with another product of that company everyone is enthusiastic in the highest level, that's the lubrication for the chain what I didn't test until now but will order and use with the new chain.
They say it makes the ride very smooth and this last for 2500 km (1,500 miles) even with riding in the rain and there also should be no more noise coming from the chain.
