[QUOTE="ronjrieth, post: 130576, member: 1092"] MORE INITIAL IMPRESSIONS: You don't know how hard it is to find twisties in Central Fl...lol. I have to tell all that the change in my 06 is one step past remarkable. I wasnt able to find a good run with turns but I was able to "smack it around" a little. I live in a horse farm area and I have about a half mile of sand roads before I get to some awful ashpalt roads that are patched and full of holes. The cartridge soaks up this awful stuff as though I was on the freeway...ok, slight exaggeration...but not much. I could hardly believe how smooth the bike was and how much control I had on this ragged road. Hard stops were much more under control as there was considerably less "dive". Again, I was able to do a little hard cornering but not much side to side stuff. The front end is rock solid and much more predictable in a turn. My '05 had Wilbers shock and springs and I was very happy with that setup....I am thrilled with this setup...I believe the cartridge may have made a big difference. Subjective I know.... All in All Lee, I gotta say....AWESOME. And, as Lee said, this is not a commercial...(I did pay for mine) In addition, Lee's shop sells an excellent DVD on motorcycle suspension entitled, "Suspension for Mortals" by Traxxion Dynamics owner, Max McAlister.
