Big brother is watching you.
He can't track a big plane that went missing, but he can see what your doing :lol
Just set all the setting to 4 before riding after you fit it.
It was on my watch list as relisted and I noticed it sold this evening and you said you bought one. Sherlock Holmes deduction :lol

I recently paid £42 for mine so it looks like I got in before the rush.
Thanks unfazed, looks like a bit of trial and error.
Anyone know of a dog bone supplier or stockest who stocks various lengths?

So it was you that beat me by a pound lol.
Re: rear shock - sirgalahad3 - 28-10-14
Arr so it was you that bid on it!
Pity you missed it bud,its a nice unit at a cheap price ;-)
Haven't fitted it yet, will be taking measurements of bike later today before stripping the whole back end of the bike down to fit a new endless chain as I want to keep the ride height the same.
Good luck with yours!
Re: rear shock - onejay - 31-10-14
my shock arrived today
it is brand new
not a mark on it anywhere
Re: rear shock - sirgalahad3 - 31-10-14
Nice one!
I picked up a couple of washers at the bike show and found drilling the eyes easy enough.Only difficulty is you need a new bolt making up for the bottom.
My bike is off the road at the moment so it won't be tested for a while. Good luck with it and let us know how it rides.
Re: rear shock - onejay - 01-11-14
I will pick up some washers
I'll see what I can come up with bolt wise, not fitting it at the moment as I am working on other projects at the moment and a friends trike arrives tomorrow for some much needed tlc.
