If I had $1200 to spare, I'd get Ohlins shocks, and if I had an additional $5000 to spend, I'd get Ohlins forks also.

If I had that much extra money I would by a new bike!

Look decent, have to be better than the 20yo stockers most of us are running.

Anyone have the un sprun eye to eye length on the Zephyr shocks?

I want to improve on what I have but don't want to mess with the geomitry of the bit too much.

It's either this or bite the bullet and try and build up a GPz 750 set with YSS. I prefer mine black.
