I have some Cusco Zero 2 on my VII and think they are fantastic.
Only thing that worries me is as they get older whether I'd be able to get them rebuilt in the UK

tein monoflex last 3.5 years. handling and grip are amazing with a proper geometery setup and they aren't too harsh either

No mate, got the modified top mounts on there and not a sound. They have done 2 winters and around 16,000 miles so well worn in.
Yea as I wanted it quite low and without tyre rubbing issues. And also less body roll I swapped the original 6k all round springs an went for 10k front and 8k rear.
Awesome on track and good on a roads but you wouldn't want them Around town everyday if there are lots of potholes about.

sorts out the knocking issues then, have read about them sorting the issue out. Good to see they do.

did have a look at running heavier springs on them, ride a fair bit stiffer.. long as you dont mind the harsh ride its worth the upgrade. Will have to have a look at the rr day! if you dont have a bad back from all the pot holes on the way to indigo then could be worth the investment ;)
