Nitron Shock, Money well spent.
 
I bought a Nitron sport shock and fitted it my 2005 S . After a 60 or so mile test ride i thought id tell you about how it has transformed the bike.

Now I have damping at the rear and the bike feels so much better in the bends , you feel like you can lean her into them now.


Roll on spring time and some nice warm weather .

Good aren't they. Exactly what I have got on my bike.

How many miles on the old shock ?

I have a brand new original shock with 0 miles. I got it changed when the bike was new. I had an SV before so I wanted something better.

I would love to fit a Nitron shock , but hard to justify spending 350 + fitting on a bike worth a grand ?

Cheers Steveg

Depends if you plan on keeping it or getting shot of it?

Ah, but when you come to sell the bike, you take it off and it's still worth £350 :) So you gets your dough back :)

Trouble is my bike is high mileage and I would rather put the extra cash towards another bike , totally agree if you are planning to keep a while or if its a newer bike

It is lovely, and the difference between Nitron and Stock is night and day.
