TEC Rear Shocks

<< < (2/2)

gtmdriver:
I'm using a pair on my CB350F.

The look correct, have the correct dimensions and work at least as well as the originals and better than the old worn out originals that I took off.

I'm very happy with them.

fryerk:
I bought a pair about 2 years or so ago for my Hinckley Bonneville. Initially I was pleased and the handling was good but after about 9 months they gave up the ghost and lost all damping. I returned them under warranty and got replacements but they too lost all damping after a similar time so I binned them. Don’t know if that was a specific issue with the type I bought or a wider issue but obviously I’d be wary of buying another set. I have fitted them in the past to a couple of sohc bikes but never used them enough or had the bikes long enough to ascertain whether they lasted.

Snelo:
I have fitted them on my bike and were a huge difference from the previous ones on the bike. Not sure if the old ones were stock or replaced at some time but were very hard on there lowest setting. For the price the TEC ones seem good quality and have been experimenting with setup and can notice the difference between settings.

If I was to buy again I would look at YSS shocks but thats just because I prefer the look of the black shock.

Nurse Julie:
Love a TEC shock myself.

wolfheze:
For the money I don't think you can expect ohlins. If you did the mileage (unlikely on an old classic) to wear them out you'd just buy another pair.
