FIRESTORM SHOCK

Post by porschewhite »

Hi,
I'm still on the look out for an aftermarket rear shock for my rs performance 50th anniversary VTR. The original Proflex unit had been removed prior to me purchasing the bike. A new unit is available from proflex but at a cost of £780 plus vat.
Does anyone know of a second hand unit for sale Ohlins, Proflex, Nitron, WP etc with a remote reservoir??
Thanks

Shipping really isn't that expensive. About $40US gets it to your door. Seems like the UK and Australia are popular regions for me lately. I'm sure some of that has to do with a weak dollar right now.
