Which shock on 07 S4RS?

[SpikeC]

 Like the title says-which Ohlins was fitted to the 07 4valver?
And should I replace my totaled M1100S with one?

interesting info here from DMF member Moronic

... It just so happens that I have an OEM S4RS Ohlins shock for sale


Just sayin'

@spike... I'm experimenting with a Ohlins shock from a 999S on my 796 right now. I think it just may work with some tweaks. Should be much more flexible than the Monster specific Du737.  I'll let you know how it goes. Could be a great option for us new gen guys that no one has discovered.

If you are asking whether to replace your totalled bike with an S4Rs, don't let the shock put you off.

I'd got worried that somehow Ducati had made a mess of the linkage. Upshot was: they hadn't. Linkage is very good and any rear-end complaints will be nothing a revalve of the OEM Ohlins can't fix. Available from suspension tuners all over the place. Or talk to the guy who worked with me, Rick at Cogent Dynamics.

That's assuming you do have issues: quite possibly lots of stock Ducs have been worse.

On the plus side, the rear travel is a genuine 148mm as quoted in the specs, which means that once set up right, it can handle any sort of tarmac surface.

The S4Rs is a spectacular ride. Doubtless more finickity than the air-cooled models but in its own way more involving for that. You also have the adjustable rod in the rear suspension linkage for tuning ride-height or squat. And if you swap the stock shock for a DU 333 triple-clicker as I have, you get to adjust preload and compression damping on the move. Like having electronic suspension, without any failure-prone electronics. Very fun.
