Hagon shock
I keep seeing them advertized in the mags and this place is only 5 miles away.He said most of his sales are mail order.He said it would be no problem to custom order a set from the factory and would be about 4 week wait.From what I can find on line,they aren't as good as ohlins or Penske but more on the par with progressive or white power.It seems most of the posts were from european bike riders(Hagon is made in England).Has anyone ever seen one on a race bike and what was their impression?I could care less about Ohlins or Penske as they're too expensive but something a little cheaper maybe worth the try.This would have a remote preload adjuster,spring for my weight and use and be rebuildable for under 500 clams.

Seeing how I never had the opertunity to ride a bike with superior suspension,even if I bought one,I'm not sure I'ld know the difference.

Oh you will know... when I put the Penske on my bike I thought the same thing... but it is weird how much different yet good it feels and launches...

Can someone explain to me the difference between a roadrace shock and the needs of one for drags.I want to email them and ask what their experience in drag racing is and see if they have the capability to change the valving internally.I was kind of hoping some of the members on the other side of the pond would be chiming in.
