Ohlins rear suspension likely on the way from Santa Claus. Can't wait.

Just ordered my Ohlins SU143 shocks. Going to install them alongside Sonic Springs 1.0kg/mm, RaceTech cartridge emulators, and 15w fork oil. Once completed, suspension should feel like a night and day difference. I cannot wait.

The Cincinnati Cafe Racer group hosted our 2nd annual Garage Brewed motorcycle show last weekend. Unfortunately, the show fell on the same weekend that my wife and I were moving into our new house so I didnt have any time to work on cleaning up the bike. That said, I think the bike showed pretty well! There was a lot of very positive feedback from people, especially the paint color and seat combo. Finally got my Ohlins installed as well. I cannot wait for it to warm up!

The show is held at a fairly large brewery here in Cincinnati. The first year, we had 3-4k people come through. This year, it was estimated we had around 7,500 people come through the show. It was PACKED. We've already outgrown our venue in two years!

Loading up for the show:

New Ohlins!

Waiting on the freight elevator to the show area!

Thanks!
