Race Tech did the WP on my Sw1. Upgraded the spring and valving for my weight. It was pricey at $455, but it was perfect right out of the box.

I am down to 175 now, I just took some of the preload out.

I got them to overhaul two WPs for me. The one for my S1 I had them gold valve it and a standard OH on the S2 WP. $225 for the S2 and over $400 gold valving the S1. I weigh 250 and they didn’t re-spring it and both work fine. They asked me if I wanted to re-spring it so apparently it’s an option still. I said I didn’t know anything about suspension, thats why I gave you my weight, set it up lol.

all great news guys. when reading up i saw the only part hard to get is the internal bump stop? i think someone found another part that works for it.

i got a very used S2 shock with billet plates. i plan on keeping it. maybe using it on the S1 but mostly if i get an S2

Yep, I found an ohlins bumper that works. I bought two and Racetech put them on for me. I think it’s linked in the other thread. If not let me know and I can try to find where I bought it.

Maybe you could pick one up! Save the shipping that is more than the part. They could have thrown them into a $7 flat rate box. Whateva.
