Default help with rear shocks.

Which one of the two styles of shock do you think will look better? I can't really decide.

I think the black ones will look better with your black fork sliders. It would be better still if they were gloss black.

Let me get this right, you need help on deciding what shock looks better and not which shock works better?

they are the same shock only one is all black and one is not(either shock can be had with the single or dual rate springs). The Ohlins you have (36E) look about the same as the street trackers above So with that in mind They are really my 1st choice.
