Anyone recognise the brand ?

(1/1)

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
My bike came with a pair of new shock absorbers already fitted - clearly not the original ones (old rusty ones came in a box)  they will do for now - there are odd mounting bolts fitted top and bottom with the top mounts being clearly having rubber bushes that are both different with extra rubber washers on one side - they look as though they have been a bit of a bodge fit.

I'm going to have to fit some new top bushes so they at least match. Does anyone recognise the brand as I can't see a makers stamp jumping out at me. I'm hoping I can get some aftermarket Poly Bushes or something similar so they fit correctlyRear Damper by Macabe Thiele, on Flickr if I cant identify them.

Johnwebley:
Could be TEC.

I agree, they look like TEC - they have a good reputation. I've had a set on my 750k2 for about 5 years now (only about 4000 miles) and the damping is just starting to fade. I've just fitted a set to my 500K2 build and they came with large steel spacer washers that go behind and in front of the shank of the top frame mount

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Is there some sort of TM on their dampers ?
