Featured Replies

Just seeing does any body have an Ohlins shock on thier bike are rode one with one on and are they really as good as what they are supose to be? Because i'am thinking about getting one and it's a lot of money if there not that good. :unsure:

I think they are better than the standard setup but if you have a brand new bike i dont think there would be much point in buying one staright away .

Are you trying to post as much stuff as you can?? Its not a race you know :unsure:

Not a Trials bike I know............

But I took delivery of one of these, last Saturday.............brand spanking new and had Ohlins shocks fitted front and rear (it doesn't have telescopic forks) when the bike was PDi'd at the BMW dealer.

Ohlins shocks are the business and transform the handling of any bike, if set up correctly and are simply awesome.

Stock shocks are ok, but are built to a price and lack sophistication

The price of the shocks for this bike was

Raga replica's have them fitted so see if you can blag a ride on one ata trial then see if you can tell the difference

Lovely bike JB

ok thanks for all your help. Hope the interveiw goes well were is it at?

I have had both a 280 Pro with a Sachs and a 300 Pro Raga with an Ohlins shock. The Ohlins is clearly better when set up properly. The Ohlins has high and low speed damping as compared to the sachs which only has single speed damping. It really shines when doing big splatters, jumps etc....

The Sachs is still a very good shock. I would save my money for some other trick bits unless your Sachs takes a crap. It's a good deal if you buy a Raga bike but otherwise, its probably a waste of money unless your looking to give your bike max coolness factor.

BTW, I'm selling my 280. I usually don't have two bikes but the Raga bike was too good a deal to pass up.

Harris perfomance in hertford :huh:

Hey, If anyones intrested I GOT THE JOB!!!!!!! :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:

So ill see if i can get you guys a few quid off a nice ohlins shock :banana:
