What brand of rear shocks do you have on the bike? Thanks, Michael

Ohlins with the chrome springs , I do not think that the yellow Ohlins springs would look good on our bikes.

That exhaust looks outstanding. Not to change the topic but what brand of foot pegs do you have? They look nice also.

I just ordered a new OEM Yuasa batterie for the 2014 from Honda Power sports in Chattanooga TN . $217 including shipping to NC but no tax. I thought about going with a lithium batterie but decided to stick with the known one OEM despite only 4 years of life. Having to buy a special charger for best results also played a role in my decision to stick with AGM batterie.

Can someone explain to me how / what the blob area that the O2 sensors are in consists of?

I can't rationalize what he has done there (pipemaster guy)...and I don't think it is right... as a proper O2 should be in the pipe flow itself..

Probably isn't noticed and won't matter to normal people as the stock o2 is just narrowband binary for emissions- but a WBO2 would most likely have a severe discrepancy from reality.

Vario 360 degree adjustable pegs from Germany : very good ones !

Looks like the connecting pipe has screws that also allow the pairs of pipes to be brought closer or further apart. I see the o2 sensor location that goes directly into each side of the exhaust. The sensors are threaded into each side and nit into the middle connecting section.

Yes , there is a separate connector pipe between the left and right , very easy to adjust.

I am now saving for the Pipes, they just look and sound too cool to pass up on at least one of my CB's. Are the Ohlins Rear Shocks that much better than the Showa shocks to merit spending that much for them? I like rear shocks to be on the softer side versus stiffer side since I do not race either of the CB's I have left; and saving my spine and kidneys comes first. The Ohlins look good, but I have always replaced bike shocks with progressive suspension pairs, set to the softer side of rebound.

For me it was worth spending the $ 1000 on the Ohlins shocks because my back , a more compliant ride but it might not be for everyone to spend that kind of money.

Thanks! I had a spinal infusion about 12 years ago, and I too take care of body parts needing extra-care versus saving money. Our backs are definitely worth protecting no matter what the cost for me too.
