Yes i have,

I have bought one for mine Montesa 4RT. It is really a big difference. It is much better adjustable, and you feel the changes much better then the original. It is also very progressive and after a few hours of riding it is still working 100 %.
For the Cota there are two different springs available for the TRP shocker.

I can only tell buy it and feel it, if you don't like the original one!!!

Neo,

All i can tell you is that Lewisport US has them. I think they cost about $600 US! $750 for the Ohlins as I recall!

See if your Sherco dealer can help you get the "07 shocker " upgrage first! The "06" shocker has had some problems based upon reports I have seen.

Smage has been running one of the TRP's on his 2.9 for a while and seems to like it last I spoke w/him. May be a good unit I would think!

Hi neo,

I got a trp for my sherco, in short terms it transformed my bike,i run a heavy spring for it as i 95kg, The reason i replaced the olle was to save time and money on constant rebuilds of the olle , the shock is worth its weight in gold, which isnt much coz they weight less than std. With the adjustment and the progressive damping within the interntals its so much easier to dail the bike in.
The spring n shock was i think about $600 au and i got it from kal at kd moto trials in brissy, i spoke to don murray in canberra and a replacement olle was about 450, so if you want to know more hitme up here or on trials oz, tell kal ..... lyndon sent you he might deal on the price,

cheers all

Hi, Which way up is best for access to the adjusters on a Sherco and what do the knob and the small screw actually do? I'd love to hear from anyone with experience.

Me too! Specifically what the standard setting should be on an olle rear shock fitted to the 06 caby

Saying that any advice here is appreciated.

Seems they like about a click or two out from all in! Opposite the forks, I run them all out!
