Interesting fork/brake mod

Good advice

Thanks for the input guys. Unfortunately, looks like the wilbers 641 shock is about the most expensive option on the market here in the u.s.

I had a look at the website via your link in the other suspension thread & the fully adjustable setup shock from them is $1200 or $1300. I found a fully adjustable bitubo shock on ebay for around $600 from a dealer on ebay. For that price Wilbers offers a unit that only offers adjustable preload so not really a fair comparison.

 I'm curious if anyone on here has had any experience with using their suspension on any of their bikes before. The shock is technically listed as being for the RS but it looks like that shouldn't be a problem, so far pretty much every review I can find on YT/ online seems to be pretty much universally positive but I'd def like to get some unbiased feedback if possible before taking the plunge. I'm going to post my query over in the suspension thread though first. As of right now, it seems like a no brainer, but it's a big investment so I'm definitely gonna wait a few days for some feedback before I pull the trigger on it. Thanks again

Best mods ever the handling is amazing now I also did a Ohlins Rear Shock , and the braking is on point now no fade at all . I also did ABS delete and CORE stainless lines  . Next some Galfer Rotors to finish up the brakes . I can tell you the Ohlins best upgrade ever. Wait the Quick Shifter and engine tuning was also very worth it too.

I was very impressed by your upgrade. Could you tell me all the additional parts that went in while replacing the brake caliper?
