I'll square up with you pretty soon.

I have several of the red and blue, if I remember correctly.
And, I made some orange for you today.

I know about those hairpins, real tight.
and, as I remember,
one of them is as you are coming up out of a roller coaster gulley crossing.
That's a really nice ride up through there.

Mud, if I may ask, what is the significance of the Ooga Booga's you make into key fobs. Is it kind of your trademark thing or ...?

those OOga's are cool... I remember em from a while back.... gotta say sounds like the shocks are a success. How do you find they compare to the other shocks you have enjoyed on the bike.

Yeah rounder you probably saw the 00gas in the Under 50.
I doodadded one as an AC cover bolt a couple years back.

The Ricors are certainly a success as far as I am concerned.

Comparing to the Ohlins with four point adjust ability,

now that I have been able to ride a bit more -

The Os did nothing for *me* that the Rs don't do (at half the cost).

Actually, I do prefer the Rs over the Os because
these are reading the input from the road conditions constantly
and initiating the appropriate response internally.

Whereas, the Os are adjusted while on the kickstand,
and that is what it's gonna be,
regardless of any differing situation.

So far, I'm real happy and glued to the road.

Mud: Thanks much for your informed opinion.

While I'm compiling info for rear shocks right now I understand how one person's opinion can vary from others.

I wish I was in your shoes and able to really compare products like you. Maybe some day I will be. Till then ... Thanks much and I value your opinion.

Damn, I want these. Is this an intro price, or will they remain this price for awhile?

EDIT: Disregard, I see what they're doing. Make a deposit, pay the rest of the intro price when they're built.. Hmmm...
