Not trying to knock PEP, but their dampers only have 3 adjustments. IF you can afford it I would recommend a 7 way adjuster thats rebuildable. It gives you much more adjustability, so you can fine tune it for any application. Where as the PEP only has hard,medium and soft.

I forgot to add that any dampener is better than no dampener at all!

LOL. I think you told me the same thing on R central.... LOL

Yeah, I know, and I am used to a 24 position Ohlins. I am just obsessive compulsive, and want to match the shock setup...

OHLINS!!! I guess you aint worried about the money thing! Yeah, that was me on the other site(LOL). Whats up? I would dump the obssessive thing and be more "performance obssessive"(LOL) Remember: Function before Fashion. See ya round.

Can you elaborate on which is hard, med, or soft. I have a PEP stabilizer. So is the adjustment closest to the steering stem hardest, or vis versa?

The closest hole to the steering stem provides the least dampening. The hole farthest from the stem gives the most dampening.

go to an auto parts store and get a VW super bettle stabilizer....its basicly what PEP and other companies befor them used.

you just need to change the end on the shaft with one thast can be bought from places like MSC.

Hey man , give Norris Quinn a call I was down there today riding and he has 3 of the new style pep ones hanging on his wall. (QUINN MOTORSPORTS) I think his user name on here is racernorris.

Due to my anal-retentiveness I will be sticking with PEP to match my shocks.

I PM'd racernorris, thanks! We'll see what he says. I am really looking for a used one, as I am on a budget.

Thanks!
