When I bought it every one said get the cheque book out, but I thought naahh, it costs money & I'm above all of that modifying stuff.

I did resist for a time, but Having had the bike for a year now I've changed the front end for a streetfighter kit to save the old wrist bones (from AF1 in usa offloading old stock), now looking for a replacement for the blue spring shock if anyone has one they would like to move on, as it has fallen over even with the bubsywoo side stand (a bit of extra height at the back end should help) I have been told to make sure that it has a schrader valve to recharge the nitrogen. Also a hugger would be handy, gad & a load of other stuff which I can resist just at the moment....

i have no idea on its condition but i do know it will need a refurb etc - around 100 to 130 i believe

but - if you want a white spring mille shock for 8 (eight) quid let me know - i will put you in touch with some one

I have a white spring mille shock that's had fresh oil and gas - and can confirm it works rather nicely on my Falco racer.

the white spring mille shock sounds interesting, so yes please if you could let your mate know or put me in touch, if it's not a basket case....

Ben - I take it you're not offering me the one off your race bike but just confirming that it's a good option, who did you get to regas & oil it?
