Had one on my wife's VF500f. Not bad for the money. WORLDS better than the stocker ever was.
It's not an Ohlins. But bang for buck the Hagon is hard to beat.

Excellent. Looks like the Tourricane is getting a new rear monoshock!
Thanks for the feedback.

I had one on my 2000 Connie for 50k miles riding two up. It performed great, then took it off and sold it when I sold the Connie.

Had two of them on ST1300 last year or so. First one failed with 13K on it second one failed with 2K on it. First one supposedly had a leaky seal holder. The second was leaking where the remote pre-load adjuster connects to the shock body.
They gave me my money back without any complaints.
For the money I liked the shock, but I won't buy another one.

At least they took care of you. That's important a well. Sorry it didn't work out for you, but I really don't have any options for a different rear shock. There *might* be a real expensive custom Penske, or Ohlins but I'm not going to spend half the worth of the bike of on one shock.

+1... And It's not like Wilbers/Ohlins/Penskes have never had problems. I have one on order form my Wee and am looking forward to the improvements.
