mine old shock was buggered big time so can not compare with that but the bird handles well now. Speed on the way to work(7 miles of lanes) is up 10mph on most corners.

So what is it a blade standard shock (with remote reserviour) with a Maxton spring?
Did it bolt straight in?
Does it give the same ride height as the standard BB shock?
Are these enough questions?
Thanks
Bob

would that be a Deep Purple spring? And do you now ride like a "Highway Star" or a "Speed King" and not "The Mule"?
And does that mean that despite being a "Hard lovin' Man" you're always back to see your "Child in Time" avoiding those "Strange Kind of Women" in there MX5's and that "Woman from Tokyo" whilst leaving plenty of "Smoke on the Water" during your 7 mile "River deep, Mountain high" route which you extracted from the "Book of Taliesyn" in order avoid your Bird being "Mistreated"

:yo:
