I'm considering the same shock. $750 is the list price. I know that www.whitebuffaloracing.com sells their fork spring and combi kits at a discount (17% or so). Not sure if they can sell the GP shocks cheaper or not.

I'm also considering doing the Hyperpro "combi" kit which is fork springs, oil and a progressive rear spring for $207 (from White Buffalo). I just don't know how much of my rear end "kicking up" is due to spring issues or damping issues.
