Model 135 Black Beauties

[Tahitian_Red]

Just picked up these Black Beauties for my Model 135 Pursang.  I had the classic blue and wihite spring Works shocks before, but they were a little long and I decided to try the all black look with the new set.

Looks good, the Telesco were all black.

Lookin' good Red. Did you specially order them in black or are they an over the counter item?

They were a set that someone never paid for and I got them a song.  I think you can order them all black from the catalog ($$$).

I wanted that Telesco look.

Firko,

Here is a listing on eBay.  I just lucked into a pair that were gathering dust on the shelf.

Wow, not cheap. In recent weeks I've bought two sets of Works shocks off Marks Swapmeet, one 13'' alloy and one set 13.5'' steel for a total of $370. I've put longer shafts taken from an old pair of finned Works shocks I had in the 13" set and they're now 13.75", just what I wanted for the Cheney. I fitted new seal kits I got from Vintage Iron 12 years ago and fresh oil....all up owning me about $200 per set. I now wish I'd  anodized the alloy ones black while they were apart.
