TS1 and PX stay in the garage (future barn finds) out on the GTS 300 when I go out on a scooter.
I know I’ll get there and back

i have been toying with idea of getting some of these. Am i right in saying that they are now on their 2nd version of the front shocks? If so is there any difference between the 2? Also do they have one or more forms of adjustment?

bloody germans ...er :roll:

dont you mean the Taiwanese ?
there maybe 2 versions, altho its not talked about the first few sets i saw and handled seemed very stiff and maybe the oil was thicker or the relief hole/valve was smaller . the next set i had (soulsurfers) seemed very easy to push in and out compared to the first 2 sets
