    Default SHOCKING !

    Got your attention, huh !

    I need a set of aftermarket shocks for my '08 RS. Me and the spousal unit are going to be doing some serious two-up riding and I would like to get yall's learned experience/opinions on what are good units, value for the dollar, etc.

    Thanks in advance,

    Tripod

    Check with Len (Pitbull Buggy} at Cowtown to see if the Elka's will work on the RS. His phone number at the store is 573-885-6300. I would trust his opinion more than anyone else. Where are you ryding? Any chance you are heading in our direction?

    Or you could get some 2011 RT takeoffs very reasonable too that would be an improvement over the 2008 RS. Cowtown should have some of those too.

    The 2011 RT shocks work great on my RS/GS!! I did the Evoluzione sway bar too at the same time. The combo is absolutely fabulous!!!!! Especially good two up!

    I have the Evo sway bar, it helps a lot. When you say RT shocks, are you talking all three?

    Thanks,
