YSS shocks

Well that would depend on what type of use. YSS 362TRWL Twin at 330mm length for all out performance (list $1,069.00 pair) with adjustable rebound, compression, length and preload.
YSS Z362 TRL Twin at 330mm (list $499.00 pair) for good handling and comfort and with adjustable rebound.
Race Tech also makes excellent quality components but these are aimed at very high performance or racing. Thus they are very firm and highly adjustable.

Tech guys will generally steer you towards springs that are stiffer than needed. Softer is easier on the back and easier to setup than the really stiff stuff.
2.7 KG/mm = 150 LBS/in. is what I use when riding solo and 4.0 = 225 LBS/in when two up. Also with good rebound control you can setup with more set-in so the 330 or 13.0" long shocks can be set to ride at the same height as 12.5 long stock shocks. Reduce set-in and you get more aggressive turn in.

The site doesn't mention 366... the list specifies 362 for Rockets. I ordered the 362s.
What's the difference?
