These are custom valved made to order shocks from Race Tech. Has anyone tried them?
I have raced dirt bikes since 13 (now 52) and have a hard time getting my mind around a $1400- $1500 Ohlins shock in the back and an emulator or cartridge in the front. If I was going with a full top end race shock(s) in the back, I would want inverted forks in the front. Also we ride 800 lb. touring bikes with low ground clearance, so really how good can these things handle anyway?
I am thinking emulators front and race tech (non reservoir) custom built shocks for the back, about $1000 total.
