There is a Ohlins STX46( fitment 2003 to 2007) for sale, but I'm reluctant to buy, given the seller can't guarantee fitment on a 2011 (I've let them know it's a non ABS bike, but I don't think at makes any difference to them. Also, the return process will be costly after paying import fees, and then posting back to Italy.

Other then the optional ABS unit by the battery, why would Ohlins only list dampers up to 2007? What would have changed that could interfere with a damper on the 2008>

My SV650s is a Non-ABS 2011.

Any Ideas? Cheers
