    Try IKON-- made in Australia. It's not going to handle so why lash out on a pair of upmarket shocks.
    With a bit of messing around they can be cut shorter than 300. They are often used in the forks of road race sidecars.
    They can make springs if they don't have them in stock

    As far as I know -- yes.
    I had RZ forks on my land speed R1-- they needed weight on front wheel, travel and spring diameter and they made me a pair of springs which were perfect. They do a great job. I think they can put any mounts on.

    I got my Bitubo shocks for the ZRX from http://www.pjsparts.com/catalog/adva...tion=1&x=0&y=0 they cost me $800 delivered, all you do is contact them tell them what you want and they'll give you a quote if you want to get the item you put down a deposit think it was about 25% then when they are ready to ship you pay the remainder, the shocks also comes sprung to your weight if you ask.

    Turnaround was 4-6 weeks in my hands, so they order them from the factory in Italy and 4-6 weeks they're in your hands there's also an Aussie company that sells Bitubo, but I enquired about it over the phone and they never got back to me after taking my number and email so screw them.

    I haven't tried the shocks yet but all the guys on the ZRXOA that have them say they are the shit and I believe Bitubo is the go to for the TL guys, the finish on them is A1 http://www.streetfighters.com.au/for...-Fighter-Build pic of them there.

    As for http://www.pjsparts.com I got onto them through a member of the ZRXOA and I couldn't be happier with the service.

    http://www.motorcycle-parts.com.au/ this is the Aussie Bitubo guy, I first contacted them about some Paolo clipons back in october through there website they got back to me about a week before christmas???, then I contacted them in February about getting a set of bitubos and a few other parts but this time I called them talked to them gave them my number and email as they requested it, waited waited still waiting. Wouldn't buy anything off them now.

    Anyway someone might fins this useful.
