I've updated my forks with RaceTech springs and Gold Valve Emulators, and now I'm looking at my shock. For info, this bike will never be track ridden, it's a back-road only ridden bike. As we are all painfully aware, shock upgrades for the FZ6 are very limited. And some shocks that were available years back are just no longer available. I can still buy a Ohlins STX46 (YA403) for $600, but before I drop that much coin on a shock I was hoping to get actual rider input on what you think of it.
I am aware of the R1 conversion...but I'm just tired of doing that type of hackery on my bikes (all of my bikes are, and have been custom). I'd like just put the bike on the center stand, remove two bolts and swap out the shock.
