Swap 15" Shocks for 14"?
« on: August 13, 2013, 03:47:45 pm »
Hi all,
I have a set on excellent Progressive shocks that are 15" and wondered if anyone might have something of a similar standard in 13.75 or 14" that they'd like to swap for these.
Happy to pay cash adjustment.
Or might be interested in outright purchase as well.
FWIW They are to go on a '75 Husky.
Many thanks in advance.

Just been having a holiday and cleaning the shed out, Hoony.   ;D
It's kinda nice to have 3 bikes ready to ride and just 2 projects that are actually getting finished......  ::)

Yep, Tatey. I'll definitely be involved in the 'Freaky Nats' in some form.
See ya there.  ;D

Got any shocks for me?  :P

Hi Tony, got a set of 13.75s in very poor condition* :( yours for SFA  if nothing else fronts up as a full rebuild would be necessary.
*Scrap metal pile is probably more apt...  Cheers bugger Tim754

Thanks Uncle.  :)

Tim, thanks for the offer mate, but I need a set that are ready to bolt on. I've got the originals that sound like they're in similar condition to yours.  ;D
I just want something cheap until I work out what I'm doing with the thing.
