speed ohlins

[pdavis]

has anyone put remote rezies on their speed ohlins? if so do they work good?

[CANNIBALKID]

i was told it wasnt possible to do.

[pdavis]

there is a screw that is at the top of the shock to add rezzies, just havent heard of anyone doing it

When I called Ohlins. I was given 2 conflicting rerports. 1. there was no way to do this. 2. That you could, but the price was way out of line, something like $2,000 for the fronts alone. Just figured forget it and get aftermarket.

Yup, this can be done....

Here's a PM that I got from Timbomoose when I asked him about his:

Hi,
The shocks are the stock speed ohlins with clicker remote res. added.The shocks were done by rbtool racing who make them for snowmobiles.He adds the clicker to the stock shock and uses amsoil for the shock oil.I am very pleased wih the shocks.The clicks range from 1 to 9. I use #3-4 for fast trail riding and 9 for the track.My brother also got a set added to his cannibal after he road mine and is very pleased.He charges around $150 per shock for the add on.
Ride On!

So there you go! I'll find a pic of his quad and post it a little later.

very helpful info, especially if it is actually only $150 each
i dont have the extra funds right now to spend $800 plus on shocks

[Derno24]

That is awesome. I didn't find Ohlins very helpful at all. I may track down a set for this conversion.

[EuroGOD]

Can be found if you put your clickamajig here!

You could sell the Speed Ohlins for 150.

The cost of the conversion for 2 shocks is 300.

So you have 450 tied up in them if you go that way.

Break your piggy bank and you can have Triple rate, ZPS, TCS from Doug for not THAT much more.


But I'd never try to spend your money for ya

I've got a set up top springs and sleeves to convert them to dual rate too, PM me Pete and I'll work you a deal on them.
