Thinking about getting some better shocks for my 5000 mile BV 300.Why you ask,well my back has been hurting for a while now and I'm hoping for a smoother ride and basically I have some money to blow.Anyone running Malossi shocks??I see they make a few kinds? Comments would be helpfully.Thanks!!!

I have a front one on my LX and a Bitubo on the rear. Makes all the difference in the world. Wish i could get a Malossi for my rear but they really don't make them (well they do but it's $600). Much better than the stock shocks on the Vespas. Don't know about the BV'S but i'm guessing they will make a huge difference. Hopefully some of the BV owners will chime in for ya. Helps my back. Every time i hit a bump with my stock shocks my back wasn't happy. Now it's happy. Good luck

The Malossi shocks are a huge improvement to general handling and predictability, but I can't say they are a more luxurious ride. They will give more of a sports car feel than a luxury car feel. Everyone that's tried them so far has great things to say about them.
