Like he said, do a search for Ohlins and you will find a ton. I have them and personaly I think there is not a better shock out there. Call Howard and he will give you a great deal. You get what you pay for. Are there cheaper options out there, yes, HD air shocks are one and we already know they are junk. Spend the money and get it done right the first time. JMHO by the way.

I've got the 3-1s. Love them. Wouldn't think of trading them for anything different, including the other Ohlins shocks.
