Default Penske shocks

a member on here FASTHARLEY is on to something big....its PENSKE shocks....anything else will pale in comparison to them, gauranteed.....i first dealt with Penske shock division with my promod....at 3000+ horsepower the car was just angry....it was tempermental and didnt really like anything i did suspension wise...i had one of the best chassis's in existence, plenty of power but always had major problems on the hit(the suspension slammin the rear tire on the ground for launch)...no shock including the Santhuff custom controlled rebound and compression like the Penske....they even sent a rep to the track with me to dial it in cause they wanted to prove a point to abuncha long time drag racers....the trick is in the valving and design on them...its totally rebuildable and simple to use...every component is tweakable...FASTHARLEY can custom build you a plush ride you only havta bolt on....he can easily tweak for any condition or ride you want.....this is new to the motorcycle industry....personally, i wish i hadnt spent the 1200 on the platinum air cause i'd sure own me a set....some of you savvy enough to know your bike is a total pkg and every part of it must be massaged if you intend to extract the performance we know it has should get a set.....on my bike i have addressed everything, thats why my little ole 98 will stomp snot on most bigger engined bikes.....here's the total pkg to work on....engine, primary, tranny, chassis, & suspension...lots of talk on here about who's kit or what tranny...i dont even waste time reading the what oil or how do i polish or even what color threads, just a waste of space IMO....but, if you want the BEST....PENSKE shocks WILL be your last set you'll ever buy

I'm intriqued........as usual Bryan cuts right to the chase and is right on, if your not working on the mechanicals of making your scooter better its really all fluff. I'll be investigating this further as I've already got a pretty good handle on everything else. Thanks for the heads up
