Shocks
31. Mar 2007 at 20:58
 
At a motorcycle fair in Holland I spotted the Hagon stand and really liked the classic style shocks they make. In fact they do a lot of schocks for classic racers.
Fred from Postma Motoren ordered the shocks to my spec and last week they came in...

Thanks to Morren Import for the service and large discount they gave us, impressed as they were by the story of this project.

Not sure if the spring rate is the right one but if it isn't we can swap them free of charge.

And yes the Hagon's are supposed to be fitted that way, or the stickers would be USD Wink

They are the right way up. It's to do with unsprung weight for improved suspension.  Cool
