No one has mentioned the Race Tech G3 with remote options. I don't know from personal experience but I have read good things regarding this shock.

I see nothing about REMOTE PRELOAD option. Hagon is looking better all the time....

FYI
http://www.racetech.com/HTML_FILES/PRELOAD_ADJUSTER.html
HP-R/I HYDRAULIC PRELOAD ADJUSTERS
Race Tech has Hydraulic Preload Adjusters for G3-S Custom Series Shocks. For riders who demand more versatility. Whether you're riding two up or need a stiffer track day set up, the hassle of setting preload is over. This Hydraulic Preload Adjuster will make adjusting your preload a snap. No more hammer and punch, it's now just a simple turn of a knob or bolt.
There are 2 types with 4 different options. The 2 types are Remote or Integral. The Remote Adjuster has 2 mounting options, Radial or Axial. On the Integral Adjuster your 2 options are to have Adjuster access on the right or the left hand side of the shock

Penske offers a bottom set-up pre-load adjuster on some of their shocks, its right where the rebound adjuster is, easier to get to on bikes like the zx14, they also come with a preload tool to adjust it, for the quality of their product its well worth it! And you dont have to spend the extra money for the option!

nope, no update yet. I got a couple irons in the fire keeping me from pulling the trigger at the moment...I'll post up when i get one and on the bike.
Leaning towards a Hagon though right now....any of them are better than stock.

i'm in the same boat right now. Penske has a sale thru end of month and I have found Ohlins within $130 of penske sale price, hyperpro has more features for 30-40 bucks more. Either way it's got to be a world of difference better. I still will need the forks done also.
