Shocking Question!!

<< < (2/2)

Rebel1:
Received the SuperShox yesterday and got them installed.  Not real happy that they actually lowered the rear of the bike by 3/4", but will see how they feel today.  I noticed a drip of oil from the right fork on my 2010 so now I get to ride 200 miles to get fork seals for the that bike.  Might just make it a longer ride to test out the new SuperShox.

Rebel1:
Update on the SuperShox.  I now have over two thousand miles on the shocks.  The ride is not much better, if at all, than with the original air shocks.  My biggest complaint is with the lower ride height.  I seem to scrape my pipes and kickstand on very mild curves.  I've also changed the settings 3 different times and can not really tell any real difference.  Just my opinion.

I’m running the Ohlins/ HD shocks on my 2019 CVO and finally got them dialed in for me.
They have adjustable compression and rebound plus about an inch adjustment on length.
I DID change the spring for a lighter one and upgraded the piston to my liking.

Made my front end seem more sloppy than before, so, upgraded that as well.
Bike rides very smooth now.

JMHO for what I ride and how I ride.

Give Brian at SS a call. He's pretty damn good about getting on the phone himself and helping figuring things out like your settings. Something isn't set right.
