Refine OPTIMA Mid Steering with a Metal Link

The Kyosho OTW143 Aluminium HD Steering Link Set upgrades the OPTIMA Mid by replacing flexible nylon components with a precision aluminium link. The package includes two flanged bearings to reduce play and support smoother rotation at the steering pivots.

Sharper Steering Feedback

Aluminium construction reduces unwanted flex so steering inputs become more faithful to rider commands. The flanged bearings cut down on lateral movement and friction, helping to maintain a stable steering feel lap after lap.

Ideal for Club Racing and Regular Use

Whether you run club events or enjoy regular track sessions, the Kyosho OTW143 provides a more linear steering characteristic that helps with fine tuning and consistent lap times. Installation is simple and focuses on improving control without altering core geometry.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

How does the OTW143 affect steering tuning?

By reducing linkage flex the OTW143 makes steering changes more predictable, which helps when adjusting toe, ackermann or servo endpoints during setup sessions.

Can the flanged bearings be serviced?

Yes. Clean the bearings with appropriate solvent, dry them, and apply light oil or grease to keep rotation smooth. Replace any bearing that develops slack or roughness.

Will this part work with aftermarket steering arms?

The OTW143 is compatible with many aftermarket steering components as long as the mounting bores and link lengths match. Verify dimensions before combining parts to avoid mismatched geometry.
