RE: [ST] Any takers? was: Shocking result

["Rick & Joyce" <rnjwes@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

My understanding is also that our stock shock isn't rebuildable.
Someone reported on this list - IIRC, it was over the winter - that the
3-way adjustable Daytona / Speed Triple shock, which is rebuildable,
will bolt directly to the ST [&/or RS?].  Anyone have more info on that
one?

We discussed prices, and it transpires that although
the usual price in the UK is about £255 including tax,
that tax does not apply to US residents. So although
you guys in the States would have to pay about £35
shipping you'd save more than that in tax - it would
cost you about £252, which is just $470 US at current
exchange rates. Compare that with the price of a new
Ohlins or Penske...

Try sales@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 

That's the UK factory, which I dealt with direct. Ask
for Martin Hagon (who I did the deal with) or Derek
(who will build and set up the shock for you). Mention
my name. And tell Martin (a) to update his website and
(b) to tell his US distributors to wake up, cos he's
losing sales!

And let me know how it goes too.

Note to Garry,
When you change to heavier fork oil, if you raise the oil level ~20mm,
it will provide a rising effective spring-rate as the fork compresses.
It made a noticeable difference on my bike.
