are TlR too overpriced?

F@#K Traxxion (imo)..as for the Ohlins,it way overdue for them to get real with the pricing..the going rate for a TLS Ohlins used to be $1448/1478 (when i bought one)... this was when the exchange rate was poor,even though it changed drastically the price was left hiked up..to the tune when the TLR Ohlins was around $1770 (i asked) i then got one off Calsportbike in California for around $1300 or less,that included GST and priority freight (the expensive option).

traxxion valves seem to be a huge advance on the standard ones tldv8...?
I swear by them....though i havn't used the race-tech version...

That may be true but they are a pain to deal with from my own experiance...i found it much easier to mail Todd at Calsportbike and get him to send me 1kg/mm Racetech springs and Goldvalves for the GSXR forks....I still need to spend some time setting it up better,but every time i go out for a short ride to do that i end up doing 100's of k's instead and thinking next time...there have been lots of next times. ...As far as the thread goes,its been said..go and ride one or the other,you either like it or not..in saying that, TL's are quite different to the usual cookie cutter bikes..they are fun but far from perfect.. imho

I had robert taylor [mr ohlins] do all the work for me...labour was included in the price of the fork rebuild....
