Hi John. You might want to e-mail Ohlins direct & ask about any delays in
production since you are requesting an alteration to their original
specifications. I already asked & apparently any alterations are possible
but take quite a bit longer for them to do. So you just might have a longer
wait than I did. Good luck. Peter Piazza
