How much of a savings is this? How much is this setup normally? Can you go over the advantages to replacing the rear shock for those that may not know? Thanks!

Weight Savings : Negligible.

This is an imported shock. Many dealers deal in these. I cannot divulge their pricing. Search is the key :thumbup

Advantages ? : Spring will be within a rider weight range, dampening (rebound/compression) adjustabilities, better construction. Better serviceability (you cant recharge the nitrogen in a stock shock, unless drilled & valve installed)

Applications : Mostly race use. Stock shock is fine for street. Matter of fact, i will be racing on stock shock to start with.

how difficult is install? just swap out stock and drop fits right in? or do you have to monkey around cutting stuff and finding your own hardware?

@abhijitz just an fyi, the new-gen shock is a straight swap-over onto the pre-gen bike, that actually raises the tail about 3/4 of an inch. You might get more people in on this GB if you make a note of that in your post.

Also, to the members who will be replacing their newgen shock with this RPM shock, consider putting your oem shock for sale. There will be pre-gen riders interested in buying them for a fair price.

Thanks Jonathan for the feedback. I thought many people would have that info as the shock has been around in US market for a while.

I will try to get more information as requested. Unfortunately, i am not allowed to post/comment on previous links

Great deal, abhijitz!

Let's make sure you clarify which RPM shock this group buy is for... the G-PLUS 2-Way or GII G-PLUS DUAL 3-Way shock. The G-PLUS has rebound and compression damping, whereas the GII has rebound and hi/lo compression damping. Both have adjustable preload
