Ikon shocks for CB1100
#13
I put Ikons on my Nighthawk 750. Ordered from Ikon rep who said, for my weight. Almost the same as stock Showas. Only Ohlins were truly better for me. I need the High Speed damping on horrible New England Roads. Low speed damping over swoopy bumps did improve somewhat with Ikons. I am 165 lbs with gear on. So most stock springs are too stiff. It is possible the lightest springs X 2 were still too stiff for me. I would expect with heavier riders there would be much more improvement in the ride. I will say this, I was very impressed with the stock SUZ TU250 shocks. Cheap but very impressive high speed damping.
