smokin joes!!! i got my works triples with cans for 450. thats 80 bucks off retail. i can't garentee that price for you (its possible tho) but i know you will still pay a lot less than the 529 retail price. send an e-mail to tyylr@aol.com and he can get you hooked up. tell him dave sent you.

ohlins are single rate but they are as much as works triple rate with rezzys which make a huge difference over stock!!!!!
i would suggest them 100% you won't be disapointed.

are you positive? the dealer guide only shows triple rate....

I could see how you could swa out springs to make dual or single, but I thought it was only what the catalog said.

unless not all the combos are listed....

jeff if your looking at the works dealer list.

the only dual and singel rate shocks they make for the 400ex are fot tt/flattrack/ and ice racing.

they acutllay take away suspension travel

look again.......
my works catalog says TRS(triple rate springs) for the FRONT with 16.25" of travel the srs and drs are 14.75" of travel........

post again tell me if you see this....
