I buy Ohlins piggy back (never bother with the remote reservoir as the steel canisters are always rusted out) from the states for $150-$200 shipped. Add a Sevice kit and bump stop, $50 or thereabouts and you have a good set of Ohlins for under $300. In one case I had to have one shaft chromed and another where I had to get a new lower eye, but I'd never pay more than $350 for a set of used, ready to use period Ohlins piggy back shocks, and I wouldn't pay a single cent for a set of remote reservoirs nowadays given the price of entry level, hi quality shocks that are available and way better specked than something from the 80's.

This is what happens when you deal with cheap stuff ,you forget the real price of quality.

You ask a question, you get an answer that doesn't suit, then you have a crack!
Have I missed something in the translation?
