Can these be adjusted by Fuel moto before purchase?

 

You can ask them. I think Ohlins sets it in the middle. Pretty sure the owners manual has some suggested settings. If it's set in the middle, just keep track of the turns you do in either direction to reset back. A buddy has a rebound adjustment and he painted a small dot on the adjustment **** to easily keep track.

 

I know you've said before that you do a lot of 2 up riding, but if you are going to be doing solo riding as well it would be worth it to get the adjustable shock. As others have said there are things you skimp on and things you shell out the cash for. Suspension and seat being two of the top items.

 

I’ve used several shocks. If I was in the same ballpark of 1K as you, I’d go with either Ohlins, Russ Weirnmont RS1 or Pro Action. I have owned and used all 3.
I’m a big guy and just sub 300…and ride 2 up freequently. The better shocks really shine 2 up.
I’ve never used Bitbuo, can’t comment.
Never used Legends rear. I currently have Legends front…and with my dissatisfaction with them, I won’t use Legends for anything.

Burbur, here’s something you’re really going to have to account for…and most likely sooner, rather than later.
A TON of us here have said it. Once you improve the factory rear…you will quickly and painfully notice how bad the factory front is.
And….you’ll want to remedy it as well.
Just keep that in mind for budgetary reasons… I promise no “I told ya so” later down the road….

 

Found Super Shox is made locally 30 min from my place. There is one set for sale from private party at $550 I am tempted. This shocks dont have rebound adjustment but dang I have a chance to buy it 50% cheaper than Legends. I am tempted as hell so I am playing with this idea. Any comments on Super Shox?

 

No experience with Super Shox. But I would only take them if you think you can really live without the adjustability. Remember that suspension is one area you don't want to compromise. Don't mean to make the decision even harder, but say you by these and then end up realizing you want the adjustability. You be out the difference between what you buy the Super Shox for and whatever you end up getting for them if you sell them. Then you end up spending the money on the Legends (or insert whatever brand) anyway. To me this in one of those "buy once, cry once" scenarios.

 

I’ve read a lot of good about Super Shox… however, again…if they need a rebuild, (Can they be rebuilt?) how much are you really saving?
My advice, contact Super Shox, tell them you’re thinking about buying a pair and they may need to be rebuilt…. What does that look like from a price and timing standpoint?
Are the SS sprung for your weight or are you compromising?

I’ve never used ‘em, I’ve read plenty where people are happy.
As long as they’re in good shape, my guess is you can try it…don’t like it, sell ‘em and not lose much.

Before I spent 1K on rear legends, there are several other brands I’d buy as I listed above. That’s me…never had rear legends again, just not happy with Fronts and the rear Ohlins I have are still the best I’ve used.

 

If you're gonna replace your rear shocks, you might want to replace your front shocks too

 

Just got message from Super Shox:Here are some reasons to choose Super Shox:

• Impressive ride quality backed by customer reviews
• Easy to set and adjust with a numbered scale
• 2x more options based on rider weight than any other brand
• Longest travel for a Bagger
• Lower ride height options with increased travel
• Spherical Bearing Ends that eliminate misalignment for a long life
• Fully serviceable
• 100% Hand assembled dyno tested and tuned
• CNC Precision Machined in our shop located in Grayslake IL
• Made in USA since 1997
• 30 Day Money Back Guarantee
• Lifetime Warranty
• Great customer service and support

Super Shox are a suspension investment that make a difference every mile you ride. The shocks can be re-sprung, re-valved at any time or just serviced. Every shock we build is serial numbered, dyno tested and saved in our data base. With this data we can always check and service any shock and match them to the original spring and damping rates.

• Shock check and service rate is $75.00 per set
• New Springs are $90.00 per set
• Re-valving is $100.00 per set (includes check and service)

 

i wouldnt be paying anywhere near half price. The shocks have some wear marks. if full rebuild is undertaken then price wise you are near new cost. So 2 to 300 is a realistic price.
