Had my first 2hrs on a 2010 ec300.It has had no playing with the clickers or even sag adjustment & feels better than my 2000ec3oo with revalved WP forks.I don't know about the 2009 forks but these feel great.

Not sure about 2010, but I am loving my 2009 SACHS stuff.

Front what I know the 2010 Sachs fork valving has changed. They don't use delta shims in them - that has to be a good thing.

Anyone know where you can get a supplier that has a reliable stock of 7mm ID shims for these????

The 2010 Sachs forks take a little while to break in, but they are not bad stock. Unfortunately there are no reliable sources for 7mm ID shims, so you can try to roll your own or wait for someone (like me ) to make a kit that uses something different to do much tuning. As it is, just ride!

I have just bought the 2010 ec450 and find the forks are definately
better than my 07 300 zokes stock.
They are brand new so will take a bit to break in but i am
not hating them,they are fairly firm in the mid stroke but soak up the
bigger hits quite well.
I am going to keep riding as is and go from there, maybe play with
spring rates and oil height,i am loving this bike!
