hi, i have been looking to buy an ohlins damper and wondered if the earlier dampers (on ebay) will fit my 05 model?

Hi mate,

Very good question, in fact I have the earlier model and have previously asked if the later model damper would fit, not too much luck.

I believe there is slight differences, however had never had much luck with help on this matter..............and sorry I cant help much as well :dunno
 
thanks for the info, will check the part numbers and give it a go!
 
The part no: s are different.

1998-2003: PU04140001

2004-2009: PU04140105-SD175 / OEM: 8795040

I bought mine from AF1, they list both, and state that the 2 for the 2004-2009 are exactly the same but sell the OEM for around $60:00 US cheaper.

I hope this has been some help.

Cheers

SGW, thanks for the info, I see they even list the other damper as identical but cheaper! sounds like a winner to me!
