Emoto Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Threw some shocks on a couple of weeks ago and finally got around to putting up a quick page about it. Enjoy! P.S. I used HMarc's excellent site for the torque values posted. HMarc, if you object, I will dig the numbers out of my manual and post them in lieu of your spiffy little table. Link to comment
sjn7708 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I had mine mounted at dealer but lowered bike 2" and really satisfied with the result. It allows me to ride the 1200GS even though Im only 5'6" Link to comment
Jovial Henry Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I am glad to hear of the success. I bought Wilbers a couple years ago for my rt and they were not set up correctly. I had to dissasemble them and set them up correctly. I am considering a 12gs and I will want to lower it 2" also. I do like the wilbers and want to go that way. Henry Link to comment
PhillipF Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I've put the Ohlins on mine, and I'm very satisfied with the result. Link to comment
Emoto Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 I've put the Ohlins on mine, and I'm very satisfied with the result. I had Ohlins on my R1100RS and thought they were outstanding. I was going to get Ohlins for the GS, but since I required a spring slightly stiffer than standard, I would have had to wait a long time. At first it was supposed to be 3 weeks, but at the end of three weeks I was told it might be another 3 weeks or a month but they really couldn't be sure!!!??? So I said "no thanks" and went with the Wilbers. No regrets. Link to comment
