First off I want to say, IF YOU HAVE A DD DO NOT GET TOCIKO ADJUSTABLE DRAG STRUTS! Basically my drivers side strut just snapped in half!!!!!!!!!! 
Im not a happy camper right now. 
(EDIT: was so mad I called them shocks haha...I believe they are actually called struts)
Going to Jack in the box durring my break....hit the breaks and go to turn in and CLUNK POP CLUNK!!! I was like WHAT!?!?! So I got my food and slowly drove back to work with the car pulling to one side and feeeling VERY weird. I get to work and look and
my freegin tire is leaning so far in (top of the tire leaning in under the fendor about 5-6 inches ) that about 2-3 inches of tread wasnt even touching the ground. 
Took a HUGE risk and drove the 50 miles home and jacked the car up to find this.
I looked at it at work and couldnt see much....and then popped my hood. My CC plate is fine (I thought it ripped it out) and my main nut is still screwed onto the top of the shock and everything looks fine. So eventually im able to see under the now tight fendor gap and see that my freegin shock SNAPPED IN TWO! The SS rod part...I couldnt believe it. And ofcourse I see my spring all twisted and mangled looking....then ofcourse I realized that NOTHING is holding this thing togethor, save for the weight of the car placing it in a bind and basically keeping the spring up against the cc plate. I wasnt sure if it could pop out or not...because I still cant see whats broke and whats not. So I just took it slow and prayed my spring wouldnt pop out and send my tire into the wheel well
.
ANYWAYS, I want the baddest of the bad shock for this thing to replace them...I was getting tired of the drag springs anyways, they suck for DDing IMO..too much movement over bumps. I want something STIFF and designed for the abuse of the road course. Im not going through this again with crappy products that cant stand up to my driving (NOT a corner carver by any means).
BOTH shocks had actually went bad earlier this week and lost their dampening effect....drivers side was leaking fluid. So this wasnt just a random quality control thing only. These shocks just dont last...and then they will break on you. BTW I have coil over suspension if your wondering. A regular setup probably wouldnt cause your spring to do that or put you in much danger.
So again please help...I would like to order these tonight. And I hope this helps anyone else out...to not use these on your DD, and if you are, get rid of them and go with something else if you have a coilover setup. Otherise just wait a little while and they will go bad
Oh and it looks like I get to take the busa into work tomorrow
. TONS (30,000 I think) of bikes in austin anyways, so ill feel right at home
