WP Suspension


Have you ever heard of WP Suspension products? There is one for my R1 on e-bay right now, but I've never heard of them, and I already have a crappy rear shock ( ), therefore buying a new one wont do me much good.

I'll take your non-response as an "I dont give a fuck, buy a Penske or kiss my ass."

How much for a Penske rear shock for a 2001 R1?

I've heard good things about White Power products, unfortunate choice of name notwithstanding. Apparently they are more popular across the pond then over here, I've been to a few euro zx6r sites where they had WP dampers or shocks and liked them. Maybe talk to degsy or one of the other eurotrash members to see what they think about the company...

I realize you were probably hoping for advice from a suspension expert and not some slow fuck who can't ride, but I seem to be the only one responding here

LMAO....its really "White Power"??? Thats fuckin horrible!

And a slow fuck who cant ride is probably exactly who I should ask, since we apparently have similar riding styles.

They are very popular in Europe. Used to be the forks/shocks of choice in the UK back in the 80's/90's. The name is not meant in a derogatory manner, White is the name of the founders.

I did not see this post until just now, If you can still get it at a good price I would. Many of the World Supersport and Superstock bike use WP. Ten Kate Honda has won world Championships with them. Let me know if you get it or need a price on Ohlins or Penske.
