I would avoid the ohlins forks unless you are able to service them yourself Any tangable differences in performance will be negated by their high maintainence requirments. parts are pricey and they require special tools to work on. I have a set and it has been my experiance that if you dont change the oil every 15 hours your asking for trouble. The ohlins seem to foul the oil very quickly, prob because of the 3 bushings designe and when that happens the performance deteriorates noticably and you can start to blow seals.Also these type of ohlins are an older designe and apart from the bling factor hold little advantage over a well dialed in set of zokes.
