Best shocks for replacement of Xreas

[Maineiac]

Hey all,

Just installed my Daystar 2.5/1 and noticed my Xreas is leaking on the front shock and want to put in new ones before I realign it. Just looking at a quality replacement.

Thanks For any recomendations

Just about everyone here is going to tell you Bilstein 5100's

Will the springs from the xreas system work with the Bilsteins?

Since you would upgrade shocks already, get better springs too.
Pics of the Rc51?

I had an RC as well, it was a 2001. Great bikes. Still miss it.
