    WTB 06+ R6 Aftermarket Rear Shock

    Just seeing if anyone has a nice R6 shock they are looking to get rid of. I'd like Ohlins, but I would certainly consider other brands.

    Let me know!

    Ohlins has a hydraulic preload adjuster. This is a nice feature, but it limits the amount of adjustment that you have, as you have to take the shock out and reset the hydraulic assembly if you need more preload than it's 10mm range..(I think that is the range). PK told me all of this when he was revalving and respringing my shock at the track this year.

    Get in touch with JRI The latest and greatest in the rear shocks just ask Scotty Greenwood, I just bought his used one. I know for a fact JRI has a couple more available for a very sweet price $795. Hope this helps WinVT. Good Luck
