Hagon makes a really good rear shock for the 955's. Dave Quinn is the US distributor. I have one on my '06 and like it a lot. Unfortunately I was too cheap to pay for the remote preload adjuster so I have to use a special spanner if I want to make changes. Otherwise, great shock.

Join the club Stook, I was too cheap to get the remote adjuster for the WP one, it was another  £70 I think. It means I have to remove the seat and then try and get my fingers into the gap to adjust it if I want pillions. It's just do able

Orange 955i Tiger Canadian based

Just received my Hagon with remote.  Hagon has a new uprated spring available 200kg.  Looks like a nice unit.

It's about time. Hagon wouldn't make one for me due to my spring requirements. I had Works build me a new one with a very heavy spring.

Very sweet!

Quote from: "Attack Pug"If any of you are interested I'll install it & do a test ride this weekend. It was done up by Sasquatch in Idaho for my 07 Tigger.

What did you think of it?

I don't have the sag set yet. I've been stiffing it up little by little commuting to work. I have most of the bounce out but the rebound is almost all the way in.  ??       send me your number maybe I could explain what its doing better Thanks

The shock feels good Jay, I want to go a little firmer but I'll have to do something with the forks to make it balanced.
