Re: dampeners
ohlins are great but i believe you would need a top mount for an 03, so its going to run about 500.00 for a new one. prob. find one on ebay for a good price though.

Re: dampeners
So you say you have a GS500 , your avatar pic is a gixxer 750 and your getting a crappy R1, sound like a dreamer to me. If you're not b.s.ing then any damper you get is going to be better then no damper stock.

Re: dampeners
I have an R1 too, love the hyper-pro on it, it allows for stiffer adjustment than the ohlins did...but mine is a lil different set-up than urs.
