Which shock? Another thread
Which shock for 2016 Limited- 944 ultra touring 13" 944-4020UT, Harley premium adjustable 13" 54000008, or Ohlins S36E? Got it narrowed down to these three, but also was eyeing suspension technologies F-Tech 130BB. 80% solo ride, but bought this bike more for two up and luggage. I'm 200 pounds, she is 125. $600 is rough target. Let me hear your thoughts, thanks.

I think your going to get too many opinions and its going to leave you still wondering which one. Get the one that's in your budget, I am running 944's ultra lows and I like em, but I don't mind a firmer ride with a bit more performance vs a cushy ride.

The choice is easy, buy Ohlins! It's the only way to travel. Mrs RK will love ya for it - expect her to spend more time on the bike with you......

How about the legends I've heard a lot of good stories about them. I'm thinking of putting a set on my bike. A friend just put progressives on his and is already complaining about the banging and the front she'll sliding out in some turns.

I am sure Scott will chime in. Pro action would get my vote over the legends.
