OK, what's the best deal anyone here can get me on a Ohlins/Penske (3way) shock? After 4 years the boing boing boingy shock has me pretty pissed....time to wail on the credit card...

Dave check out this new manufacturer, they seem to be cheaper than the Ohlins and the Penske, but right in the neighborhood as fas as adjustability and function.
elkasuspension.com
from what I have heard, they tend run a few hundred dollars cheaper than the Ohlins and Penske....Its what I will run on the ZX10 this winter..

When in doubt, lean farther and go faster....

Yep, called them already. They say they will make a shock for the ZX12R "soon." Asked for a date of release & they couldn't answer....
Thanks for the tip...
