They are pretty cool but Jaimie's option is almost the same performance for dimes less. Lots of dimes!

I will say that they do work very well......
The only down side is that you can't get them with ride height adjustment anymore....

Aw dont be jealous saige....Just think how poor I am now. I have been working alot of forced overtime lately, so I figured this was the right opportunity to get one.
We need to get together and ride sometime. My weekends lately have been full, but that should calm down soon.

Thanks for the info Hawk. I have not taken delivery of it yet, so I am not totally sure if the instructions are with it or not. I believe they are from the pictures. The only thing I didnt see in the pictures is the mounting bracket for the remote preload adjuster. I am sure I can probably figure something out if it comes down to it. I did look at the stuff online at the ohlins site. It looks like they have it mounted right where my high rise jardine rt1's are sitting. The guy said it was setup for a 200 lb geared up rider. I figure I am about 220-225 geared up, so I may replace the spring when I do the front forks.

Cheers all

You shouldn't have a problem as it does mount pretty far forward. The mounts are just rubber blocks which you should be able to get from Ohlins if yours doesn't come with them.

Hawk thanks for the pic. Nice looking bike.....Like the white rims.....My old race bike had white rims.
I was referring to the other part that mounts on the other side of the bike. I believe it adjusts the spring preload, but I am still learning.
Thanks, Walt

For some reason i thought you were talking about the reservoir not the preload adjuster..... so never mind
