Should be showing up later this week. I'm not in a big rush to get it on. I will probably just drool on it for a few hours.

I got it for half price. The most you can find usually on these things is 15-20 %.

There is a huge difference between you talking about buying an entire set of ohlins forks for your BUELL STREET BIKE than me trying to get my suspension set up properly on my RACE BIKE.

Not to mention I will have my forks reworked and this shock purchased for a total cost that is less than HALF of what you were considering spending on those forks...

Either way, definitely a good investment. I'll trade you my year old ohlins rear for that one =)
The forks are the next order of business this winter. They need new oil and seals and bushings anyways, so I will do that and at the same time do a revalving and respringing at the very least. It will be a financial decision at that point. Revalve and respring is most likely. Maybe play with the oil weight a bit to get the desired characteristics.
