Arite. im sick of almost dying from tankslappers. can anyone help me decide which damper to get.

i know Ohlins is the ****.
Scotts is good.
GPR is good.
HyperPro used to ****.
gellato (? somthing like that) sends you a damper with an ohlins shock inside for 100 bucks less than an ohlins.

but i want to know which mounts easiest?
which ones take fabrication, which bolts right up?
wuts the pluses and minuses?
which will last?
which needs to be rebuilt right away?

I really like how the GPR bolts right up to the bike and you dont have to fab nothing. I like how it looks better also, opposed to the shock on the bike. and i also like that the dial is right there for you to look down at and adjust.

just curious what everyone else thinks??

cmon people. im gonna die if i dont get one of these soon :YEAH

 

i've never had one but props for spelling damper correctly!

 

get a scotts you'll love it

 

The Shock-type Ohlins Is The Best, But Gets Easily Damaged With Crashes. Scotts Are Good And Can Be Re-located To Any Bike With 125 Dollar Mounting Hardware Kit. Havent Had Any Experience With The Others

 

dumb question....is there a stock replacement mount Ohlins damper for the gixxers?

 

YES THERE IS, DEFINATELY PIMP ON THE G'S

 

Yep. PM MERK. He's got the deal.

 

I'll have to get one of those...I don't want a top mount because of crashing, and the stock location is nice.

 

I had to make my GPR dampener fit, the idiots at GRP said that the gixxxer 750 (04/05) has an angled gas tank… I told them they were idiots and I’m looking right at my bike now and it doesn’t fit. They stuck to their story...

I had to shave my base plate down about a 1/8" and than cut off some of the other mounting bracket for it to just barely fit. It’s a good dampener but ... customer service sucks and its over priced

 

gpr fo sure.
