Ohlins Rear Shock Group Buy!

[LowRyter]

$1200 ?  I can think of lots I can do to my bike for $1200.  Which is only worth maybe $3-$4k ?

 

You might also check the board where there was mention that the stock shock could be rebuilt using Ohlins parts.

$1200 seems reasonable for a decent shock with the hydraulic preload ($300 + worth) , but I guess it depends on how long you intend keeping the bike? Think of it as a couple of sets of tyres, it'll make a whole lot more difference than new tyres!

 

Ps I've got a wilburs so have no need for the ohlins - my bike only had 5000 km on it when I installed the wilburs, but the transformation was amazing. On tuesday I came over a crest on the wrong side of 130 k, got very airborne, perfectly smooth landing and not even a hint of headshake! How do you put a price on that?
