Nice,
Sometimes it can be a bit subjective but tell us how you like it after you beat on it for a while.
The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

So. in your opinion, was it worth going with the Ohlins?

i bought the ohlins becuse it had les than 6 hours on it and was half price!, the speed compresion is really easy to adjust to : soft,medium,hard, with a 17 mm, the rebound and compression is adjusted with a alan key. and it comes with really cool stickers,
