These are ohlins DFV. They feel pretty alright and I can't say they're bad because it's ohlins BUT that's only because I haven't get a wheel alignment done yet and I'm on Pirelli P6 which I feel it's not as sharp as the Goodyear tires I had. I'll write a review once I got my wheel alignment done.

I am so, so jealous of your Ohlins DFVs.

Care to post up comments on road and track use?
