Ambitious / Optimistic??

I'm a great believer in the "the glass is half full" approach to life, but but this is very "optimistic" don't you think?

I wish him him luck getting that price for it

I saw that one six months ago when I was looking to upgrade my shock. Due to more sense than money I got a cheaper Ohlins shock for around £130 mark ;-)

I got a White Spring off eBay for £40 including postage, and it was unmarked and almost unused. Bloke said he'd swapped almost straight away for an Ohlins, and believed it once I saw it and fitted.
This one's worth havin at 1/10th of the price!

Do you actually think you are going to get that much for a NORMAL shock when you can buy Maxton or Ohlins for less. Sorry but £150 is more appropriate

i think you meant 1.50 for a normal sucks shock


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Dunno - the way the pound's going lately it may not be long before that's a realistic valuation
