good nick series 2 rear shocker

[Chrisb]

Any club member got a good nick series 2 rear shock I can borrow to test a theory before i waste any more cash on fucking useless aftermarket lambretta parts.

as you may have seen from my facebook rant ....got a brand new shock , on full preload and the fucking thing smacks the side panel off the rear bracket on the supertourer exhaust (panel is now ruined) .... been told that the series 2 shocker is about half an inch longer and it might just give me the clearance I need

Or..... anyone know of a shocker with REALLY strong spring ?

[Chrisb]

another "helpful" alternative may be to move the exhaust bracket round a stud ( which will involve chaincase off again) and then drill extra holes in bracket to accomadate new angle .... REALLY don't want to have to go there

Chris -- I have a bog standard S2 escort shocky on my S3 as its a bit longer & give me a higher ride height -- I can swing round if you want to try it?

borrowed Scotts Protech series 2 shocker .... MUCH better, ......longer and stiffer fnar fnar (the spring is much fatter) which is a cnut cos i only bought the current shock recently ( ho hum , another spare for the TV)
