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

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

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

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.
