I'm running a set of Bitubos and I'm pretty happy with them. Took me a while to get them dialed in but I think I've found the sweet spot. I'd still love to try a set of Ohlins someday, but I like the Bitubos enough that I will do the forks next before experimenting any more with the rear.

Give him a call and find out. This man is an information specialist. Will answer his phone most any time and has time for most questions. He is a forum sponsor Motorcycle Metal.

You can easily make your own brackets if the ones that come with the shocks don't work with your particular model.

Here is what I used to make the brackets for the remote reservoir
a. (1) 3 foot piece of 1/8" thick, 1-1/2" width aluminum angle
b. (4) #10-24 x 3/4" stainless machine screws
c. (4) #10-24 stainless nylon lock nuts
d. (8) #10 stainless washers
