| Are ohlins worth it?????
Well after no end of grief with my Ohlins rear, i today put the original Showa back on. And what a great feeling, my bike now has compression and preload adjustment. So i can now start to learn the bikes limits again (as well as mine).
The ohlins has deteorated cosmetically to the point that it needed a new body, (Yes, i know it is in a vulnerable position). For the money they cost, the quality of finish after some years is very poor. I had tried several times in the past to get the importer to service it and replace the body, but they didn't like answering queries. Even less so at their stand at the Ally pally, when i was taken aside so punters did not hear a complaint of their product.
So after i tried elsewhere to get an upto date quote of £120 to service it , then another £40 - £80 for for supply of a new body. I have thrown in the towel.
I had thought that the Ohlins experiance would have been better than standard, but i have found it to be the opposite.
Am i alone or have others had grief.  |
