Let him know it's not too late to give me a discount on the Penske. It is the second shock I have bought from them. They are very good, just wish they where on the east coast.

Yeah that's the only place I can find but ordering from US to EU is very slow and expensive.. I was kinda wishing for a dealer in EU =)

Also not sure which I should choose:
#6063 95-02 16.5 inch Adjustable Preload - Add $659.00

#6064 95-02 16.5 inch Adjustable Preload & Rebound - Add $789.00

#6065 95-02 16.5 inch Adjustable Preload Rebound and Compression - Add $849.00

And then I have to choose LBS, is that depending on my weight or..?

I agree w/ Wulf. Unless you are planning on competing, the base model will be fine. Put the extra money into some XB heads.

I have the 6065 and have enjoyed it and have used the full range of adjustments offered. I fell it is better to have the option to adjust than not have it and wait it. Considering you geographic problems I would opt for the 65. Also check out AST and Wilbur(AKA hyperpro).

The £ is very weak against the Euro (AST is Dutch) and the $ is weak against the £ AND the Euro. Anything you buy from the UK for your Buell is rip off prices in my opinion anyway. Buy in the US, you know it makes sense

For works shock I need to select LBS.. Is that depending on my weight? I weigh 85kilo so I guess I should have the 187 one.. But I do ride with passenger quite often and I like doing wheelies so maybe I should chose a harder one?
