So it looks like I am inheriting my wife's 2012 6R. I love the bike but the suspension sucks in it's stock bargain basement form.
The forks are easy enough to fix or swap but...
Do any of the aftermarket shock manufacturers i.e. Ohlins, Wilbers, Hyperpro, Penske, etc make a shock for this bike that is actually AVAILABLE in the US?
Alternatively, has anyone successfully swapped another bikes HIGH END shock i.e. and R6R, R1, S1000R etc? I'm not interested in swapping one crappy emulsion shock for a different crappy emulsion shock such as an SV.
