Ohlins
« on: November 13, 2013, 07:50:46 PM »

Just put on a set of Ohlins from Howard at Motorcycle Metal. He called them a 2 1/2, a hybrid of the 2 and 3, with externally adjustable Compression & Rebound.  I only have about 150 miles on them, but thus far, I think this may be the best $$ I have ever spent.  Bought the bike used with about 8K on it, with Legends Air ride. I never really got used to the Legends, did not like the ride, and  with a 33" inseam  don't need the bike lowered. The ride quality of  the Ohlins is outstanding thus far.

Thanks Howard.

Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Congrats, they are great shocks.  I use them on my RG and will use their cartridges up front, it's my winter project.

Had Ohlins on the Limited, running JRIs on the CVO.  Howard is a wealth of information and sells fantastic shocks.

I have been running the Ohlin 6's for around 15000 miles that I got from Howard and they have been great. If you ride hard they are worth the investment for sure
