check out these babies,
YSS Z366 series emulsion gas shocks, 16mm heat treated and hard chrome shafts, 60 click in rebound adjustment, ride hight adjustment and about an inch of pre load adjustment
can't wait to hit the road with these, I'm rebuilding the forks as well, so i'll have to wait

Nice looking shocks you have there. I'd seen this brand out there but had never heard of it before. The specs definitely sound good. Let us know how they work out!

they cost me $850AU which is about half the cost orlins or wilbers
apparantly yss were a cheap and nasty shock some years ago and were joined by some german engineers that redesigned there range with better tolerances and quality control
the specialist suspension guys here recken there just as good as the above and they build the shock to suit your needs
