    YSS top line

    I'm over the pond in not so sunny England at the moment and just been offered brand new top line YSS shocks (bigger damper rod and better materials) for $330

    strongly considering them as I'm sure a few people here have used them for classic. Racing

    any comments before I "flex the plastic "

    Which model? The photo shows the model with adjustable rebound damping. I think those normally sell for about $500 new.

    To measure is to know.

      Will the spring rate be correct for your bike and usage?

          For racing, you might want to save up for the G series with full adjustability and the increased temperature stability of the remote reservoir. I don't race with mine, but I knew I wouldn't be satisfied with less adjustabilty. Either way, you won't be disappointed with the quality is the springs and damping are right for your bike.

            Thanks for the input

            I bought - RZ362-335TRL-01-X with a slightly stiffer than stock spring as I'm "robustly built" .... but its only a 12mm shaft and I wanted 16mm (RZ366) , however at $330 they'll probably do as its going to be a low mileage bike and definitely not on track.
            I just couldn't bring myself to buy into the extremely cheap chinese shocks OR spend ohlins/wilbers money this time around .... So I'll suck it and see
