shock reliability
#1
this summer i plan on getting new shocks for my ds 650, and was wondering what you guy's thought was the most reliable shock's . i'm trying to decide between ohlins and the fox float's . i'v heard good thing's about the ohlins , but can get the fox's much cheaper, has anyone rebuilt the fox's ? hard, easy? long term reliabilty
is the most important thing to me , any suggestion, or comment's?

MotoWaz Prices are Nuts!!, cant see spending that much unless you professionally ride, For 300 Plus get the rear shock Re- Valve and hard Coat anodized, There rear Shock is a GOOD Shock.
The money you saved on not buying a rear could be added when looking into Works are good under 600, Elka's jump to 900 range easily, then if you want the guru of shocks PEP 1250 Plus like motowaz, Shocks are like cars the whistel and bells you add the mor ethe price jumps, as i tell folks on shocks if you ride one type area get them valved for that riding, Your weight and Speed that you ride .
Im a duner did not need the compression and rebound on my shocks, they are valeved just right for Glamis, I do run Rezzies due to my Economy Size to keep the shock oil cool and can go a bit longer without changing shock oil

i heard the same about the rear, was planning on the front's only .i dont care how adjustable they are , reliability is # 1, i run a couple real rocky trails that can kill shocks in a week. i currently recharge my rear at least twice a season. but old age is taking its toll , latly i do alot of sit down ridding /lol
