HI Guys,

Iv just had fitted Adventure Ohlins front and rear to my standard 2002 GS.
it feels like iv purchased a new bike,
I can highly reccomend them if you love your GS like i do.
Roll on the spring,

Steve

I did buy a new bike for less money, new to me anyway.

Put Ohlins on my 1150GS in 2002 when the origional shock failed at 13 months/20k. It is sagging a little now (100k), needs rebuilding - have been quoted £130.

The rear shock on my 'S' was replaced under warranty (2 years/13k), replacement failed at 39k. Would have been cheaper to have got the Ohlins for that as well.

Not only a different league in terms of ride/roadholding, but also so cheap in comparison if you do enough miles.
