RE: [ST] Shock suggestion

["Daniel Wallander" <triumph99@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Hagon shocks seem to have a good reputation with the BMW crowd.  I
haven't heard of any problems with them, though I haven't really heard
anyone rave about them either.  I think they are probably a good quality
unit, but not on par with a Penske or Ohlins, though not as expensive
either.

Works Performance's Ultra shock is a direct bolt on for the ST, though you
send in your old shock and they reuse the reservior from it.  It is a
quality unit and vastly improves the feel of the bike.  It is adjustable
and comes with a single rate spring for your weight.  Mine was about
$550.00 delivered.  It is rebuildable.  Working with them was seamless and
it took only a couple of weeks for the shock exchange - they send the old
shock back - they didn't charge my card until they sent the completed unit
to me.
