rear shocks

Post by dickvandevelde »

Where is the best place to look for rear shocks for an R100RT 1981? I need shocks that will carry a passenger plus gear.
I live in B.C. Canada. I am also looking for rear shocks for a 1971 Norton Commando. Thanks, Dick Vandevelde

Ikon 7610 are excellent shocks, two up + gear.

3 position preload, so excellent for one up no gear, as well.
multiple position damping.

They take punishing terrain, well.
