Title: Shocks to suit RT-3
Post by: Rookie#1 on July 10, 2012, 07:40:59 pm
Hi all, I'm looking for some decent shocks for my rt. what is currently on there is some low ball piggy back resevoir things that I was told came off a xs650 road racer!! They are about as springy as a concrete pad and lack the ability to become much better!! So I'm after something a little better (read softer) if anyone has anything?? Stock shocks would be fine if someone has some? Yes I know all the high budget options but really wanna avoid spending 1k on a bike that'll prob only see 1 or 2 scramble meets a year.

Cheers, Brendan  :)

Hi Rookie , what are you doing with your RT1 grass track or natural terrain . If so call Wasp on this site he has some good low buget shocks that are great for a clubman . tell him they are the ones Iain has for grass track .  Iain
