Title: YACUGAR Shocks
Post by: TimTyler on June 12, 2016, 01:34:08 PM

What do we know about YACUGAR shocks for the K75/K100?

I'll be in the market soon and noticed these on the BeemerShop site.

E-RS is a fully serviceable emulsion shock for all applications and its features include; Spring preload adjustment as well as rebound damping adjustment. The shock is also optionally available with hydraulic preload and/or length adjuster. Each part has been precision machined and quality checked. The E-RS is a high quality, economically priced shock absorber.

says they compete with Wilbers, I would agree at least price-wise :mbird

Hey Tim,
Have you considered Ram Shox?  http://www.ramshox.com/ (http://www.ramshox.com/)  Out of the UK.  I got mine delivered to my door in May for just under $320 US!  With the Brexit vote and all, it should be even less.  I am pretty happy with mine. 13 settings for the dampener and infinite spring adjustment.  I have nothing to compare it to, except my old OEM shock that it replaced. So it has been nothing but spectacular!  :riding: Great guys to deal with.  I got mine ordered via a member here at the forum.

Thanks, Bizz.

I got a YSS Z SERIES shock from BeemerShop and it seems fine. About $400.

Ted put a spring in it that fits my weight range, from solo with the aluminum tragkorbs to fully loaded for camping with cameras. It's a nice improvement from the Progressive 465.
