I'm looking for some advice on the upgrade of my front suspension on a 2007 Vespa GTV 250. Any experience and advice between the Molassi RS24 and the Biturbo GAV - they are both the same price and I can't decid on which product?
Theres also a new version of the Bitubo called the "racing" edition, its bascially the same shock but coloured black with easier adjustable preload and more damping adjustment.
I have an 07 GTS250 too and I fitted Bitubos front and rear about a year ago and can honestly say that -- for me -- they have been one of the best mods I have made to the GT -- especially if you ride 2-up very often.
The ride is firmer but MUCH better damped -- rough road surfaces are eaten up with the bike still feeling planted; braking not only feels more secure but is much improved because of that security (the difference for braking is immense); and when riding two-up you rarely bottom out and when cornering the float and scuttle of the OEM set is a thing of the past.
All of these benefits are before you mention the much greater range of preload and damping settings so that you can set up just how you like it.....and change in more easily too....
