I wanted to do a review on the #2-#3 ohlins shocks that I bought from Howard (fastharley) at Motorcyle Metal. First off I've read alot of reviews on Howard, and I'm here to tell ya that I completely enjoyed talking with Howard, and have never gotten better customer service anywhere! Don't hesitate to deal with him, as I didn't realize it was after 8:00pm in Florida as I had just gotten off work in Missouri and he didn't bat an eye! Very helpfully. Now the shocks. If you've read the same Posts saying that the Ohlins are so good that they make the forks feel shoddy in comparison, believe it, and I think they'll only get better as they break in. I'll post an update later.

 

Right on man, Howard is very informative, ha! he makes you do the thinking and I like that!

 

true story, until your done taking a beating from your rear springs you never really notice just how sh!tty the stock stock sliders are
