I expect a full writeup tomorrow so you better get to wrenching tonight!
That shock is SO pretty Jay!

The spring Dan chose for you is 120 kg. The bike is heavy but you are relatively light and I was curious what spring rate he would choose.
If anyone else ends up modifying or replacing their rear shock this will give them a good guess as to what spring they will need......Thanx much.
Funny thing about Ohlins.... if you have never ridden a bike with them, life is fine...... but once you do, you'll never go back! Congrats again!
BTW.... you'll need to do quite a bit of tuning to these suspension bits to get the ride qualities that you prefer.
Now is a good time to start thinking about what kind of "ride" you want, ie; soft/compliant initial compression for small bumps but still controlled further into the travel, where and how fast you ride etc...
When you purchase Ohlins, you essentially purchase a huge range of adjustability (with the added benefit of longer tire life as well).
Time to make friends with someone who knows suspension setup!

True indeed F, and yes I have a great suspension guy, he's one of the best in the PNW!

Thanks C!
