Fournales shock absorbers

[Garry]

As my RGS restoration is almost complete, I’m still looking for a few details about the RGS I owned back in the 1980s. At the time, I had fitted it with Fournales rear shock absorbers.
Does anyone know if this model is still available, for sale, or if anyone still has spare set lying around somewhere?

The old Australian distributor, a very famous bloke, died a good while back, and I haven't heard of anyone importing them since. One of the Sydney locals used them on his RGS, and I had a full day's run on it. It was a long time back, so what I remember was after upping the air pressure to better suit my extra 50kgs, I didnt notice anything, the best suspension is one you dont notice at all. A 30second google seach found this. No idea if they still sell them

Thanks Vince, and I’d found this site too, but those aren’t the models I’m looking for. I couldn’t find anything else online either.
I can’t remember if they were any better; it’s more a case of nostalgia.
