Ohlins S36E
Hey was hoping to hear some feed back from guys of these on their street glides and how do they compare to the stock shocks.Not impressed with the bottoming out also changed the oil in the shocks and still running about 45 psi i am 240 and wife is about 140 .I know these are entry level ohlins but wondering how the ride is and were they hard to set up?thx

We can buy Ohlins at discounted rates from HDF sponsor Motorcycle Metal, who will supply correct springs and provide personal advice on set-up. We have the separated oil/gas type, with adjustable damper and they are marvellous! No more bottoming out, despite 2-up and fully loaded.

Mine are indeed a level above yours, but not high end, by any means. I strongly recommend you phone Howard at Motorcycle Metal. He discounts Ohlins, as stated above and will also explain the different versions. If you buy the model you mention from him you may well pay less than anywhere else.
