660 Tour shocks

[ultracyclist]

Have any members of this forum upgraded to Wilbers, Olin, Hagon, etc?
What works for you?

Yup, every one of my Skorpions
Wilbers 640 road with length adjustment in my Tour
Wilbers 641 racing (length, high and low speed compression and of course rebound) in my racer, now my street bike

The WP strut from the Replica
I have also used an older WP strut for a FZR750
and a modified Sachs strut from an Aprilia RS250 with the WP spring for the Replica.

All worked well to extremely good. Best odf course the racing strut but theit was custom-made for the bike and weight and cost $$$$$$$.
The 640 road is worth the money for street use.


There are quite few struts than fit or can easily be made to fit.
The Sachs RS250 works best of those but it is a bit more machine work to do.
Length center-center should not exceed 305mm.

Bu tit is mportant when changing to strut to first install better springs in the fork. Several options here but I am partial to Wilbers.
I have or had both Wilbers and WP springs in use.
