Yer gonna talk me into the JRi, aren't you?

I've always felt that high speed dampening adjustment isn't really necessary for racing but curious on what others are getting.

I think you could build a case for a triple on very LW bikes where corner speed is everything and at some tracks corner exits are very bumpy. You could lay off a bit on the HSC to improve carrying the drive out on to the straight. Just a thought.

On my 600 race bike with Ohlins TTX I never touched or considered touching the high speed. But you may be right in considering a lightweight may require it. The Penske 2 way is upgradeable to a 3 way. And my suspension guy knows the Penske fairly well. So I think it should work out well. Though now you are making me think about the JRi.

Require is a strong word.


On the big bikes I generally say put it (HSC) at the half way point and we'll talk about it later....

Is there some sort of middle-of-the-road option for those of us that will mostly ride street with the occasional track day?

JRi single adjust - non reservoir, also known as the StreetFighter Stealth. $699
Floating piston design, Integrated rebound/compression adjusted and 10mm ride height. Super easy to adjust - completely rebuildable.

A rebound adjust only emulsion unit Ohlins would run you 800-900ish.

I just had my JRI shock installed by ken at SB suspension in Naperville IL. He said the original was complete crap- as well the spring. I will attempt to post a pic.

jri shock installed



I will test it out at the track tomorrow.

 

[DCMoney]

Congrats, I haven't decided which shock I'm going with or even if I'm getting one this season.

 

[Muckabucka]

Don't get one DCMoney! You'll be fine on the stock tires too! I've got a set I can give you for the rest of the season

 

[Wa2fst]

Please send a pic when its all in. Only thing i dont like is the line from the shock to the remote bows outside the frame. I thought i could ziptie it but really cant. Like to see what ken did with urs.

Thanks! You're such a nice guy!

 

[Muckabucka]

Just lookin out for my racin buds!

Thanks! You're such a nice guy!

It could have gone under more but i liked it on the side.

 

[wheninrome]

Here is screen shot from his FB page as my pic didn't turn out so good there.

 

[wheninrome]

Between the bike and the shock- i am done spending for a good while. But I really hate the seat. There is no room to move around.

 

[Wa2fst]

So that your finished bike? Cause his original pic to me is setup diff. I will post mine. I bought my shock from him and he said he preferred the mount like i have lol. Give me a sec.

 

[Wa2fst]

You can s how the line bows out. I was going to mount just like yours but he said he preferred directly behind the shock.

 

[Wa2fst]

I think. I will do like yours but roll it on the inside of the frame. Im sure yours is that way for his logos.

 

[gbabyracing]

This was actually the first ever install of a JRi on a RC390. The stock exhaust was still on at that time.
