    I'm an ohlins fan, but I think it's more of a personal preference. U can't go wrong with either one I think.

    I run Ohlins but........ GPR seems really nice too along with the Scotts. Any of them would do great.

    Ohlins bought Scott's quite a while ago.

    Ya I thought Ohlins made the Scott's one. I have a Scott's on my GS and it's pretty sweet.

    Why do you want one? Doesn't your GSXR have a stock one?

    I like the Ohlins on my bike.

    Hyperpro is good quality. Linear type's have less play in them.

    Scotts or Hyperpro.. I like the Hyperpro RSC a little better.. less resistance to normal steering inputs

    I think a better question would be linear vs radial. Ohlins linear is the best I have ever used.
