iTrader: (0) Rep Power: 5  (58) |  Best place to buy Ohlins or Penske shock? I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on either a Ohlins or Penske shock... anyone have any recomendations on where to purchase? How about opinions on Ohlins vs. Penske? I'm leaning towards the Penske because of price, but I'm open to suggestions.

iTrader: (0) Rep Power: 5 (58) | Well let's see... $600ish for a Penske or $5000 for a track bike. :headscratch :funflip

iTrader: (0) Rep Power: 5 (58) | Okay, on a more serious note... anyone heard anything good or bad about Elka shocks? Looks like the Penske is discontinued for my bike. :thumbdown

Although, a set of ohlin race forks are about the same as a track bike. So I guess they go hand in hand! I think you should look into getting the new beemer sport twin (R1200S), comes stock with ohlins. Come to the darkside, and just think - your're hands will never be cold again.
