Yeah the rotarys were originally designed for dirt bikes since they crash better and there are less moving parts/seals exposed to the environment.

The sprints are nice and relatively inexpensive. Dave, for the best price on sprint dampers go to globalmoto.net.

This is the kind of setup I'm going to have for my ohlins... as you can see the ignition/key barrel needs to be removed. However the damper is clearly nice and protected. Best of both worlds:
