BGM Front Dampers

Have just fitted these to the race scooter........ looking forward to trying them on Sunday at Mallory Park.

Initial thoughts are that they are incredibly well made and a very high quality. They actually look like they will be heavy...... but they are not!

16 adjustments mean that there is plenty to experiment with for different track / road surfaces / riding styles.......

These dampers were supplied by Lambretta Cottage - info@lambrettacottage.com

Full report to follow after the weekend!

They're around £175 a pair and you still need to use the internal fork spring as these are only dampers.

Whats the finish on these dampers? They look different in every picture I see of them. Is the finish the same as the rear dampers from BGM?
