lead to "speed wobbles". Hyperpro came up with a
non-compromising solution: the "Link-System Curve
Design" for springs. With this construction, a spring
can be designed to satisfy all the demands of modern
motorcycle technology. Hyperpro gives you a
sensitive initial part of the stroke with a smoothly
increasing spring rate for safety and anti-dive at the
end of the stroke. Together with the use of the
highest quality materials and precision- machining,
this results in the best springs that money can buy."
Hyperpro fork springs are manufactured to DIN-
2095, class 1, are specially polished for minimal
friction and carry a lifetime warranty against
breaking. These shock springs are said to provide
superior road holding and handling under all
conditions and are thoroughly tested on a
computerized dyno and on the bike in question.
Zodiac has them for almost any Harley since 1984.
"Awe as in awesome! Shock & Awe 2.0 takes LED
lighting to the next level," says Mijdrecht,
Netherlands based Zodiac International. "Ciro has
packed the new app full of exciting features such as
a racing mode to track your speed, music and
microphone integration, three-channel output, brake
function, and more! With the Ciro Bluetooth app
riders can choose from millions of colors to find the
perfect match for their bike or any other vehicle they
choose to accessorize." Sold as a complete engine
lighting starter kit, a physical controller is also
included, but that does not support as many
functions as the app does.

S Exhaust for XG750
Corona, California based Two Brothers Racing 2-
into-1 exhaust systems "are designed to deliver
maximum torque" - they feature race-inspired
stainless steel headers that "have pounds off the
competition to ensure a long lasting, weather
resistant, amazing sounding exhaust." They come
complete with heat shields and are available ceramic
black coated with carbon fiber end cap.
These 'Link System' suspension springs are the result
of many years of R&D on front forks, shocks, springs
and suspension systems by Dutch specialist
Hyperpro. Zodiac says that "most of the time a linear
spring is either too hard or too soft at the beginning
and/or at the end of its compression stroke cycle. A
so called one-step progressive spring is an
improvement, but is still a compromise between
comfort and safety. The sudden change from soft to
hard is often felt as a handling disadvantage and can
