Well that is a bit rubbish isn’t it, I would definitely expect the shocks to come with the correct bolt hole and thread size. If not then at least supplied with new bolt and bush kit.
We have to put up with so much of this, incorrect size, not quite right, have to spent hours getting supposed correct stuff to fit cr**.
Hope you get a good conclusion from them and a shock with the correct fitting.
DomP:
It is really considering the cost of the stainless adjustable shocks, hopefully they resolve it in the new year. I did give them every detail possible, the chap I spoke to called Tony was very helpful so I think it will all be good, im sure they dont expect me to get bushes to insert through the oe honda bushes.
DomP:
Hagon have had my shocks back to alter them, got them back in the post yesterday so excitedly went to fit them only to find the lower fork mount is still too wide for the bushings by around 2.5mm. Surely this isnt right that ill need to shim 'bespoke shocks?
Bryanj:
You shouldnt, but i will say that hagon do list different shocks for 400,500 and 750 whilst Girling, whose business Hagon took over, listed the same shock with different springs
