I've just today got and built my big bore shocks. I must say how wonderfully silky smooth they are, feel really fantastic. By comparison, the small bore v2's feel pap and rough, spring rubbing on body, etc.
I'm unsure on the fine tuning at this stage, so have gone with the 1.6 piston and the same 35/30 weight oil I've been running in the v2's. They do feel remarkably similar damping, so hopefully this is a good start.
Anyone else running them on C4.1/B4.1 yet?
A tip. The new caps are ali, so I decided against mounting them on the blue FT top shock bushings, opting for the old/RTR plastic shock bushings AS6473. They fit perfect, just need a 2mm spacer (included with shocks) and a 4-40 nut against the shock tower.
