After reading here, and some research, I find that lots have gone from Ohlins to Bitubos, not many if any have gone from Bitubos to Ohlins, I am in the market after having Legends Installed in the front and noticing how it has transformed the ride completely.
Thanks.
I heard recently about Bitubos shocks - some people change Ohlins for those, so sounds like good recommendation.

That's exactly what I expressed above.
I am almost ready to buy them however I am open for last suggestions (RWD) if any?

theres a dealer in california that did a good write up on the rwds on youtube and he really liked them. the video goes over install and setup. the rwds have more travel than any other shock that i saw on the market. i wanted them too.
the ohlins showed up today. i got them installed but thats it. just sitting on the bike theyre not sprung as stiff as the progressive 940s that came off the bike and theyre noticeably taller. i got the 13" where the ones coming off were 12" (stroke of a 13).

Which model did you go with? Are you also looking at doing the fronts?

i got the 772s. i will be doing fronts, but at this point im not sure which route to go, its a tossup between ohlins amd their cartridge or pas kit, which is tough to beat for the price.
