Re: Can front shocks be reconditioned?

A quick update - I rang around and was surprised at how cheap
replacement units are (how often can you say that?). I've only ever
bought motorcycle shock absorbers previously, and they tend to be very
expensive, so I started off thinking that each shock would be about
=A3400.

In fact the OEM shock works out at =A363.33 + VAT and the spring =A349.53
+ VAT. In the end I went for aftermarket KYB shocks, and have got both
front shocks and springs for =A3185 incl VAT and delivery. =A3185 I could
do without spending, but still pleasantly surprised. About 2 hours to
fit apparently, and as I use my local garage rather than an offical
dealer, I should get away with under =A3300 total.

Cheers
