Front Shock
I'm not sure how it is in the US with Öhlins, but here in the UK, BMW have an exclusivity deal where the Sports pack shocks for the R12S are only available from BMW only.
I've got a rear Öhlins and I'm looking for similar for the front end. There is an Öhlins specialist nearby, who say they can get a shock for an R12ST, but as Öhlins don't list the R12S, they've got no reference details re shock length etc. They say that valving to suit wont be an issue as long as the shock will physically fit. Anyone know if the ST shock fits an S? |

Not sure about the fit, but the same exclusive deal exists here in the states. I suspect one could be modified to fit, but wouldn't bolt on directly with correct height and stroke.
