I've bought a 2012 rear shock for my 08 blade, I've heard they're not a million miles away from an Ohlins and it only cost me £140 off Ebay. Had Ohlins on my last 2 bikes but they've become so expensive now I just can't justify the cost. It's a much cheaper option as Ohlins new are around the £1200 mark! and there's just none around secondhand. I'll let you know how it performs when I've had it fitted.
I ve got one for sale but id be looking at £190 delivered....... its what i paid and never fitted.....?
