Hi folks. I know that most Speed Twin owners have a raging (internal) debate, about whether or not, to fit aftermarket rear shocks. The usual choices are Ohlins, YSS, Nitron, Hagon, etc. I just wanted to throw an alternative into the mix. I've recently upgraded to a set of 'Protech Shocks'. They are British made and fully adjustable for Preload, Rebound and Compression. If you buy direct from Protech, they are around £350 a pair. My ST performs really well on them, and they are a noticeable improvement over stock. They are far better than my skill level could ever explore. I am in no way affiliated with this company. I just wanted to mention a cheaper alternative to the usual suspects, and one that is well worth consideration. Regards, Lez
That's a very reasonable price for a decent pair of fully adjustable shocks. Personally, with deep enough pockets, I'd put a pair of bespoke Maxton shocks ahead of Ohlins anyday but a pair for my Street Scrambler came out around £1100.
