Laverdaroo:
Yeah, they have NO stock of the TEC items at all now. The Nitron ones would be the absolute swingers but dear at a grand plus.
ComfySofa:
Thats what my paypal 0% interest free account is for!!! just bought some GP4RX's for my z1000 so im currently clearing that down....ive got a Nitron R3 on my z1000 which after 5 years is still in perfect nick. Im an advocate of "you get what you pay for" plus...its my dads bike...i feel its the least i can do...refresh it and give it some subtle upgrades...
Laverdaroo:
If I had the dosh, Iwould do exctly the same, I hd a Nitron on my 853, it was an incredible bit of kit,just wish I could afford one for the VFR!
ComfySofa:
Yep - i bought the Nitron R3 rear for the Zed Some time ago (that was my first foreray into "posh suspension") - Then i upgraded the RSV4 from standard oem ohlins to a TTXmk2 and NiX30 cartridges on the front....that was a generational change...the harder you push it the more compliant it becomes....very nice...my 50th present to myself was a 3way bitubo for the rear of the Hyper - just waiting to get some cash to get some adriani cartridges for the front...
Funnily enough i dont drink, never smoked and pretty well spend #@%$ all on anything apart from bikes! :)
