Congrats.

Our local suspension guy was never much of an Ohlins fan until recently.

His view of the TTX: set it once and you're done.

Almost no adjusting necessary, it is that good.

Your skills are not suffecient enough to need a shock like that. Keep working on lap times, asshole.

After all that bitching and whining you did about not wanting to get your suspension done, you finally listened to wisdom. It's about damn time.

He's a follower, not a leader. A sheep if you will.

That's one thing I've decided to invest in with my '09. Respring and valve the front forks and get a nice rear shock. I'm not progressing anymore and I think retuning my suspension and take a class or two should keep me going. Good mod, for sure!

Probably true.

While this is true, you clearly don't have a clue about good suspension components.
