What's the reference for the Wilber shocks?
Paul

Hi Paul, the ones for my 1000 and 1200 are 630 TS Road, see link below. I had mine customised for my weight and type of riding, so my full reference number wont help much. if you get in touch with Wilbers, let them know style of riding, weight and how often you have a pillion, they can tweak them from there.

That's the sort of money I would pay for a complete bike.

Many thanks. My 3C is very harsh suspension wise. I have a set of Ikon on the back which are quite satisfactory on my 750s. I'll start by going down to 7.5 from 10W oil in the fork.

I bought my set of Wilbers for the Mirage from Keith Nairn: think I paid about GBP750 at the time (2011). Whatever I paid they were worth every penny..

Ditto. Just bought a 94 Triumph Sprint 900 in reasonable condition with 40,000 on the clock and an excellent runner for £650. ( = just over one shock absorber)

Just coughed up £600 for Maxtons for the Corsa - hopefully there will be a big improvement in the ride and handling particularly 2 up

I've got one of them and a MK1 Speed Triple, nice engines.

That's one thing, making them reliable and decent looking is another all together.

Understood , I liken it to fetishes , some blokes are Maggie thatcher types….. say a 600 quid bike , I’m more the Cameron Diaz type, so I don’t mind paying for a bike that spins my wheels. That said everything needs work, especially me,

I thought you only bought incomplete bikes?

Statistically insignifiant.

Statistically insignifiant.

statistically speaking less people have them than others, but i like them a lot, does that work

Surprised to see another purple SF!

Okay, not a Laverda but any red-blooded motorcyclist would appreciate this. The Royal Australian Air Force putting on a bit of a show in Brisbane.
Sorry if it's off topic but what the hell!

A few years back I was fixing a roof leak on a 7-story unit block at Rose Bay on Sydney Harbour and watched what they call a Handling Display by an FA18 that went on for 15 minutes and ended with a full afterburner vertical climb from what I found out later was the Cenotaph in Martin Place causing a lot of scared phone calls to The Cops. It was to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the End of Battle for Australia in the Pacific campaign in WW2. Every now and then at random, I would luck out seeing this stuff so now I follow this website to get an idea of what's coming up. Handy to see what's happening for Anzac Day etc.
