Author Message   Easyrider Posted on Sunday, March 11, 2012 - 03:28 am:        Finally our new Test Shock arrived for the Tube Buell https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.31924580 62841.2141699.1607594289&type=1https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.31924580 62841.2141699.1607594289&type=1   Koz5150 Posted on Monday, March 12, 2012 - 01:17 pm:        Is there a remote reservoir or did you build it so that it is not needed?   Firstbuell Posted on Monday, March 12, 2012 - 01:55 pm:        Hiya, Couldn't get link to work..... Price? Availability? Thx   Firemanjim Posted on Monday, March 12, 2012 - 03:52 pm:        Koz, that was my question as well----   Ghettobirdpirate Posted on Monday, March 12, 2012 - 04:36 pm:        This is their prototype test shock. Twin Motorcycles: "More Specs Tuesday, We are building up the parts list to make a cost price for the shock, I hope to post more news next week and keep is as cheap as possible." If you are on Facebook you can look them up. They have a public profile, so you don't have to friend request or subscribe if you don't want to.   Koz5150 Posted on Tuesday, March 13, 2012 - 09:51 am:        I get that it is a prototype. If it works without the remote reservoir, rebuildable here in the states, and in the $400 - $600 range I am all for it and would be interesting in purchasing one. If it is $800 like the Works shock then I will probably stick with my current shock which I sent out to be rebuilt while I set aside money for a Works shock. UPDATE: reading his facebook posts he suggests that they will build them with both a reservoir and without. I would be interested in the cheapest decent dependable street ride as I am done doing trackdays with my M2.

Over the years I rebuilt the shock several times to the point where my suspension guy said the shock was completely worn out. With no other choice, I bought a Penske. The difference was night and day. If I had known the improvement was going to be so dramatic I would have done it much sooner. Recall shocks blow seals, it is a lousy design. I have never done a motorcycle track day.
