For around $600 either way I have in front of me the option to replace a dead 2005 888 RC with either a new 2011 888 RC3 EVO or a new 2011 Boxxer RC. I'm leaning toward the 888 because the deal is through Marzocchi and my local shop where the Boxxer is through a classified ad. Keeping it between these two forks, which would you go with and why?

888,

a new 888 at that price is a steal.

Were you generally happy with your old 888? If so, go with the new one. Awesome price, similar feel, low maintenance, and you'll be getting it through people you know instead of some random.

Plus, $600 for a "new" 2011 Boxxer RC seems a little fishy.

888's. Wouldn't touch Boxxers again after riding 88's

I'd get the zoke.

Agreed.

Marz. Way better damping than the basic Boxxer RC.

I do love my 2010 Team though.

The new 888 are simply incredible forks.

Done, 888 it is.

Done, 888 it is.

Excellent choice. Enjoy!
