Hi All
Just rebuilt my bike and it's looking a treat apart from horrible looking wheels which I can't afford to get done yet and Nasty shockers !
Does anyone know where I can get a new pair of shockers for my 350 lightweight?

Re: Rear shockers
Rare a Rocking horse poo!!! what's wrong with them? As long as they don't leak then all you can do is renovate them with new chrome sleeves and a coat of paint. I have been looking for a spare pair for years!! Think the club was looking into getting some made but not sure what's happened to that idea. There are no pattern ones made for these either due to the unusual length of the lower part of the shocker which has to be like that the avoid hitting the chainguardEthjon wrote:Hi All

Re: Rear shockers
You can't get new ones, but you can get them looking like new quite easily. As long as the damper is still working, just get a set of covers off eBay and give the damper a lick of paint. After changing the covers, mine came out looking (and working) like new.
