Wanted: Shocks

[Mike Stephenson]

I am in need of some useable shocks for my 76 Cross Country 250 - would prefer something longer than stock - around 14 to 15" length.

Email me directly at [email protected]

Thanks in advance!

I am still in need of some shocks.  Stock length or slightly longer.  Not looking to spend a ton of money, just something not leaking and usable.  LMK if you might have something appropriate!  Thanks

I thought there was a set of NOS longer S+W"s on Ebay right now.  Look under "Motorcycle Shocks". CIAO

Jerry - I would appreciate that.  Email me direct at [email protected] when you find out.

 Will you be going to the Feb. POG meeting?  I may be there.  It will be my first, and I guess I will need to sign up as a member then to wont I! (it just occured to me I have not done that yet!)

Kip - Yep..I saw those S&W's and just bid on them, got beat out in the last 17 seconds of the auction with a higher max bid than mine!  Oh well!  

Thanks guys.

Mike,
I think I might have a decent pair of 14.5-15 inch Bilsteins with the remote cannisters that were factory originals from a 79 KTM 250 that are in bolt on useable shape. I'd like to get $100.00 + shipping for them if that would work for you.

That Legends site also has other dirt bike parts, handlebars, throttles, switches, etc.

Rob W - actually if i dont find something low cost, used I very well may do those Legend shocks myself.  I emailed them a while ago actually.  I like the idea of being able to spring them to my weight.  Still, I hope to come in less money than that (though that seems to be a good price). Where are you located?  It would be great to hook up with a nearby Penton fan!  Plenty of local trails, accessible right from my driveway, plus a harescrambles type loop on my property to ride.  We could get Young Ted to join us and have a mini Penton get together!

Bob and Jerry - thanks!  Can you email me pics?  I will send each of you emails to assure you have my address.    FYI - after tonight, my intenet access will be sporadic at best for the next 5 days or so, so if you dont hear from me for a few days, dont sweat it,  I am however potentially interested in any of the shocks you guys have offered up.
