SaltyDawg Posted May 19, 2008 #2 Posted May 19, 2008 The best place to get one from RickH email him at his website www.buckeyeperformance.com he is a member here and will be able to get it for you. He will send you a question sheet that will help them determine how to build the shock. It will be built for you and your bike, taking into consideration your weight, your passengers weight, whether or not you pull a trailer, and what type of driving you do. It takes a month or two depending on the time of year and the workload, but remember it's not on the shelf at this time, it's being built for you. I have had mine on my bike for over a year and couldn't be happier. If you do get the shock, hold it next to the OEM shock you take out and you will know without a shadow of a doubt you made the right decision. Plus the Performance shock can be rebuilt for around a hundred dollars.

Rick Butler Posted May 20, 2008 #4 Posted May 20, 2008 (edited) So Salty, Can Rick can get them for less than what you would pay Works directly? If so, that's a pretty good deal. Regardless Tom, What you are looking for is their UltraSport shock 2 way adjustable with no reservoir which they list at $649 (plus shipping). The only adjustment you have is the manual threaded preload collar to establish the correct ride height and then the adjustable rebound dampening. http://www.worksperformance.com/html/street.html And Salty is right in that they will need to know the weight of the rider, passenger and normal luggage to establish the spring rate you will need. They already know what the weight of the bike is. Hope this helps, Rick Edited May 20, 2008 by Rick Butler

I can't quote his price or whether he can beat the worksperformance price, but as I said I think he can get them to you faster.
