Suzuki 2 Strokes

Hi, would buy shock absorbers for my GT500, what do you think of these models sold by reproductiondecals or Paul Miller? I think they are manufactured in China, they are beautiful but I do not know if they work well. If people have tested their opinions are welcome.
Thank you for your responses.

I got a pair from repro-decals. They fit good, reuse the metal bushings from your old shocks. On setting two, it seems to ride barely stiff,just right for me. So far, an improvement from the originals.

I need to replace my rearshocks now that I have put the custom made front fork springs in that the group made years back.

Does any have any other suggestions other than the repro-decal ones? or are they the way to go?

Talk to your local independant dealer about Pregressive That's what ! used on my 550 cafe. These come in a thousand variations. If you want something closer to stock appearance, springs also come in chrome - with or without a chrome top cover. A definate improvement over the super mushy stockers. This pair was around $170.

Also try some Hagons. They are what used to be Girling shocks. Great brand British aftermarket shocks. Google for them, there is one U.S. distributor, so you have a local contact.

Or Ikons (which used to be Koni). What I liked was they are the correct length, whereas the Progressives were (IMHO) too long.

Brilliant, thanks all for the input.

Anyone tried rfy reservoir shocks from ebay? For $100 they look awesome

reviving this topic to answer the last question, i just read up a bunch on the rfy shocks on a few forums, they seem fine, it also sounds like a good idea to check the amount of oil and gas that is in there and top it up, that seems to be the only ongoing issue I've read about. I'm going to try some china shocks, i'm poor, and I want to ride I'll try to keep this updated!

These aren't dear, and they're great....http://www.njbshocks.co.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Agree +1 NJB shocks. They'll build to your specs, (weight etc), excellent and not expensive.
