I just had a shock built by Klaus Heuencke at www.epmperformance.com for my 2nd gen RSV. Ride quality is excellent, and shock construction is excellent. It is a YSS brand, but is custom built by Klaus in New Jersey. The cost of the shock is $499, which is far less than anything else I could find (including stock). The shock is also about 2-3lbs lighter than the stock shock, and performance is far superior to stock. I'll post a pic of it tonight. You can email Klaus at info@epmperf.com . The shock is adjustable, specs are: Pre-Load Adjustment, Rebound Adjustment 60 Clicks — 50 mm 50 Micron Steel Bore and Radial Sinter Piston — 16 mm Hardened Shaft — Low Friction, Long Life Seal Block — Bearing, Bushes and Fork Fittings to suit each Model — Dampening and Springrates Model specific, and is rebuildable.

I have... 4 weeks ago on my way home from work, I was trying to pull away at a stop light (trying is the key word there) and no forward motion... but, I did have an interesting (and distressing) chattering sound. You know the sound... like a stripped gear. Well thanks to a fellow VR member and a guy a WHOLE lot smarter than me (insert jokes here), Klaus and I (mostly Klaus w/ me getting in the way) got the transmissions replaced. In the middle gear area it was broken in about 3 pieces. It is swapped and re-assembled, and next weekend it should be back in the bike and I'll be back on 2 wheels... I've been accused of being crabby lately... I really need some cycle therapy!! Oh... I know... it didn't happen if theres no pics. I took these with my cell phone, so the quality is just ok...
