OME shocks are made by Monroe. The problem I have with this is I have never had a Monroe shock that didn't rust out after an Ohio winter. Their paint and finishing is absolutely garbage.
While I actually think the OME shocks are pretty good, I would choose another brand if you are around winter salted roads or you will be constantly repainting them. Personally, I don't think the Bilsteins are a bad shock, but they are valved a little stiffer than others. (Nowhere as bad as Fox though.)

The OME part numbers are 60066L for the front and 60067L for the rear. If you choose to go with them. Contrary to popular belief they are not valved special for MC. MC uses regular OME shocks you can buy from Amazon.

But, they ride great!
One other alternative are the Rancho XL9000. Those are said to be a great riding shock.
