Shock Factory M Shocks?

#1 Post by MartDude » Sun Jul 01, 2012 4:47 pm

They list shocks for all the Rotax-engined Aprilias

Does anyone here have any experience of these? Or heard anything about them?

At £350.00, they would appear to be reasonably priced.

I don't need a new shock at the moment, but thought others might find this useful - if they're any good, that is.

Mmm I think with the price of second hand ohlins units and then a servive at 100 quid, and possibly a spring at 80 quid.
These make quite a reasonable priced shock. :smt104

These have recently been discussed in the Aprilia bit of the forum: https://www.ridersite.com/viewtopic.php?t=9981

Not a problem - the wider forum are allowed to discuss this too!
I just thought it might be an idea to bring everyone up to speed with what has been discussed so far.

:smt003 I only put it there as I thought 'general' might be missed by the Aprilia sect

I think I may go for one on the Pegaso, as I currently have a discount voucher :smt002
