New Ohlins - ChipBeck_imp - 02-19-2015

Gentlemen,

NTX Superbikes in Texas ordered me some new black spring Ohlins. Ohlin USA didn't have any CB1100 shocks on hand so these were made and shipped from Sweden. Took about a month to get them after ordering. Too bad they didn't arrive a couple days earlier so I could use them on my trip to California. Next week I'll find time to install them and add my opinion to the many already posted here about these shocks. Cheers.

Chip

Nice looking shocks there Chip.

I just realized how comical it is that a photo of those shocks got me all excited. We truly are a strange lot.

Maybe it's their shape.

I'm headed to New Ohlins in a couple months...can't wait for a beignet and coffee!

RE: New Ohlins - emptysea - 02-20-2015

They do look cool. I, too, look forward to your thoughts on them, Chip Beck.

I had to read that 3 times before I got it un-decider. Add an accent and that's funny lol

K,

Part # HO-010, you must specify spring color, your riding weight with gear, and what % of your riding will be 2 up.

I negotiated a discounted price and bought from this dealer because they don't charge sales tax on out of state sales. I paid $868 plus $25 shipping for a total of $893. NTX Superbikes phone # is (972) 966-0932. Hope that helps.
