Default New Ohlins Rear Shock Fitted

Just had it fitted (and serviced) and rode it back from the shop........ very nice indeed, the bike does not '' jar '' as much when going over bumps and holes in the road.

Had some Pazzo's fitted as well, next is a coolant and brake fluid change.... its a slow process this getting a bike back to full strength.

This be true ! I got it from Ebay and it was mint, had it serviced anyway as you never know. I had thought of getting front Ohlins but instead had them rebuilt and new fork oil put in..... i am not that rich ! This bike is new to me and i have to say.... WOW, it really turns on a sixpence (uk) or dime (usa).

yup, you gotta love ebay, you can get some real nice stuff on there for a pretty reasonable price. i've never ridden on ohlins, but i haven't ever heard anyone say that it didn't make a big difference, they all say that it makes the bike completely different and better in every way handling wise.
