Author Message   Goldtooth Posted on Friday, July 30, 2010 - 12:03 pm:        Figured it would happen at some point. Lost all of the rebound and dampening on the Showa. Wanted to replace it anyway but was going to wait until winter to fork out the cash for a Penske. Anyone have a good stock unit they want to let go cheap so I can ride until winter? nate   S3ter Posted on Friday, July 30, 2010 - 12:58 pm:        Penske was pricey but best rear shock I have used on any bike. Similar to Ohlins in quality. Showas are cr*p.   Ebutch Posted on Friday, July 30, 2010 - 03:02 pm:        http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Buell-Shock-Absorbe r-Replacement-Shock-Recall-0820-/130415032424?cmd= ViewItem&pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=ite m1e5d577868#ht_856wt_732   Devil_car Posted on Friday, July 30, 2010 - 04:57 pm:        I bought a stock replacement for mine, since I couldn't afford the Penske... after having a new one again and no more bounce, I'd still have to say it was a waste of money! If you can figure a way to get the Penske, I would do it. From what I've read on here, it's a night and day difference from the stock junkers!   Ebutch Posted on Friday, July 30, 2010 - 05:53 pm:        http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ewItem&item=330453127297&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT# ht_500wt_975   Goldtooth Posted on Friday, July 30, 2010 - 07:19 pm:        thanks Ebutch, I am watching a few on Ebay. I will get the Penske but don't have the funds right now. May just have to grab a used stocker and hope for the best till winter.   Slaughter Posted on Sunday, August 01, 2010 - 03:58 am:        You might consider the Works. I debated on Penske or Works (use Penske on my racebikes) - and Works won out on cost. They're really the only two making the reverse-action shocks for our tubers.
