Dont go vf-anything, whatever you do. You will hate living. (never heard a good thing about them.)
How much is Marzocchi charging you for that setup? And yes that would be hot#1ORBUST said:QFT

Nickel Plated is around 20-30% stronger/has less friction resistance and has a better life span. Current "Bad ass Black" will crack overtime with heavy use. I've seen it, I saw a hand me down 888 go from Carlin Dunne (was on his back up bike) go to another friend who beat the hell out of it. Then he sold it to a Grom and both stancions cracked and broke off on his first ride.Mongiafer said:[email protected] nickel plated!!! bad ass black for life!!

WTF....!!!!!!!!! are you serius???.... that shiat is marketing gimmik, give me a break at least you where talking about F1 cars shocks that difference in the friction resistance is so little that the average riader is no gonna notice it. The 2003, 2004 and 2005 boxxers world cup did come with that nickel plated that you are talking about....don't you think if it was really worth they will be still producing that kind of stantions?
The rebound is actually smoother than compression, the compression is the worst part of it....ebfreerider510 said:do not get anything VF....the rebound spikes like a pogostick...just riding one around and i could feel it.
i second that:thumbsup:fuelinjection23 said:get like an 06 drop off
