I have to say that for all the hype that the TRF shocks receive, I haven't been all that impressed. After our short outdoor season(about 6 races), mine were filled with dirty oil.

They are smooth, but definitely not THE smoothest I have ever felt. To tell the truth, if I could make an even trade for a set of JRX-S shocks and find a way to mount those up on my TA05, I would do it in a heartbeat.

Those shocks were easier to build, easier to equalize, and came out clean after a full outdoor season(about 12 races) and a partial indoor season without ever being rebuilt.
