One part I do need is a decent set of rear shocks, I have some Marzocchi Strada piggybacks in bits but they need seals and no one has them anymore.

I might have to buy a pair of these, I'd prefer something like Koni but again finding a set in great nick can be hard.

For a standard shock they make the bikes handle very, very well Ken. Very comfortable without any wallowing. We have them on most, if not all of our SOHC/4's thinking about it, so and couldn't ask for better especially for the price. Trig says they are better than the originals.

Nurse Julie:
They look similar Ken but we only ever buy the shocks from TEC in UK.

I can measure my old shocks but they are stuck in the garage about 1 mile away.

No idea Ken but I'm sure Graham has got some here he can measure.
