Why is that tax can't be all that much?
Wish I wasnt in Texas and this deal coming from a dealer in texas cause that kinda takes a bit of the "Deal" part outta it.
Interesting. My Penske shocks are closer to 22-24 clicks for compression. As long as the valving is in the correct range, 6 clicks could cover it... Just surprised is all.

- Compression: The Compression adjuster is located on the remote reservoir can. There are 6 clicks of adjustment. High and Low speed compression adjustments are shared. To separate them, you would need the triple adjuster. That would be a waste on the RC390 in my opinion, and also likely why JRi started their offering with the double adjuster.
Will be able to use a credit card to make the payment to you?
On a "double adjust" shock, only the low speed compression and low speed rebound are adjusted. The high speed compression is adjusted by changing the shim stack unless you have a separate high speed adjuster knob (ie. triple adjust). The low speed compression adjustment can effect the point that the flow changes to the high speed compression circuit, but not how hard/soft or fast/slow it will be. Not a huge deal in most cases since it really only effects bump compliance when the bike is pretty much upright.
I assume paypal is the same deal, correct?Yes, but I would need to charge a small amount to cover the costs of the payment processing. The costs for the credit card processing is 2.9% + $0.30. So that would be $786.45. I'm basically passing the dealer costs straight through so to accept a credit card I have to charge more or it would cost me to sell the shock to you. Margins on bike parts (and electronics) are razor thin. Hope you can understand that. I'm not making a profit on this group buy... just trying to help get the shock in the hands of forum members who want one at as an affordable of a price as I can.

The group buy will close at the end of the month on August 31st at Noon, US Central time. I will then contact you directly to arrange payment. Once I've received your payment I will then place the order for your shock with JRi. Depending on interest levels, I might be able to order your shock before then, but to be able to offer y'all the discounted rate I need to have minimum order quantities hit of no less than 5-7 shocks per batch order. Once the shocks are ordered I will receive them in ~10 business days. Once I receive the shocks I will then ensure you have the correct rate spring and set the preload to approximately the amount necessary for the sag for your weight, and ship you your shock.
So, if you'd like to participate in the group buy here is what you need to do. Either: email me directly at [email protected] or send me a PM here, or you can comment on this thread. You will need to send me the following information:
- Name
- Rider Weight in plain clothes.
- Rider Weight in full gear.
- Riding style: Road racing, Track days, Street, or whatever combination there of.
- City, State
Hmmmm. Not according to JRi. They state that the compression adjustment is "high and low speed":
Here's the feature list from the JRi website:
Features:
-Ride Height Adjustment
-High & Low Speed Compression Adjustment (Emphasis mine)
-Low Speed Rebound Adjustment
-Spring Preload Adjustment
Not saying you're wrong, just that's what JRi says.
Hey Matt just wondering if we are getting any closer to getting these things ordered
