Author Message   Drauff Posted on Sunday, July 27, 2014 - 10:41 am:        Does anyone know of any other bikes that use the pull shock setup? just can't afford a 1000 for a shock.   Lynrd Posted on Sunday, July 27, 2014 - 10:45 am:        Harley Softail. They suck.   Numb_nutz Posted on Sunday, July 27, 2014 - 11:31 am:        I have a new M2 low shock for $150 if your interested.   46champ Posted on Sunday, July 27, 2014 - 12:34 pm:        These are 820 http://americansportbike.com/newdir/Item/5191-15   Jefc73 Posted on Sunday, July 27, 2014 - 12:49 pm:        If your going to spend that much money on the twin shock you might as well go with the Penske. For less than $200 more there is way more adjustment. I roadraced with Penskes for 6 years and you get what you pay for but.... yes it is a lot of money. Unfortunately there just isnt many alternatives. I put the Penske on my S1W and love it. You could always send out the stock unit to Race tech and have them rebuild.   Mighty_mouse Posted on Sunday, July 27, 2014 - 03:17 pm:        I just bought one off ebay for $200 with the short length front mount. BTW does anyone know the length of the preload adjustment on a X1 with the shorter shock? Both '01,'02 shop manuals show for the longer shock. There are new OEM shocks listed on ebay from $300-$500. MM   Mhlunsford Posted on Sunday, July 27, 2014 - 03:22 pm:        I bought a new m2l shock eBay 100 from a hd dealer unloading stock.   Paint_shaker Posted on Sunday, July 27, 2014 - 08:31 pm:        Good luck!! I bought one used one and it turned out to be a dud. Tried to get one rebuilt with no luck. Was going to bite the bullet and get a Works shock @ $700 and finally found a new in the box 16.5 stocker.   Scott_in_nh Posted on Tuesday, July 29, 2014 - 10:27 am:        I road my S3 for years on the stock shock/forks as I didn't have the money either. That said, once I did bite the bullet, changing to a Penske and respringing and adding gold valve emulation to the forks was the BEST money I ever spent on the bike. If you are planning on keeping the bike - find a way you won't regret it!   Flyingbaker Posted on Tuesday, July 29, 2014 - 11:31 am:        I have a Penske brand new 8987 triple adjustable shock with remote resovoir. I will do 600 plus shipping for this web site. Sorry for any confusion mine is for an xb 15,5 inches (Message edited by Flyingbaker on July 29, 2014)   Phelan Posted on Tuesday, July 29, 2014 - 11:42 am:          Jordon_s3t Posted on Tuesday, July 29, 2014 - 01:04 pm:        That's a smoking deal on a Penske... too bad I'm a novice in suspension adjusting.. the more the adjustments, the more mistakes I'll make   Skntpig Posted on Tuesday, July 29, 2014 - 01:47 pm:        PM sent on Penske   Skntpig Posted on Tuesday, July 29, 2014 - 02:42 pm:        Disregard the PM about the Penske. I just found your post in the classifieds. The shock is for an XB not a tuber. Big difference.
