Hi all, a couple of months ago i bought a SP rear shock rocker arm for my "92 strada based special, the guy then sent me a list of other parts that were available......You've guessed it...... SP5 top yolk plates were amongst them! I think there are a quite a few on the scene in Europe.What With the high prices that the SP's command now, it's worth knocking out the odd "fake" SP5.Future buyers should be VERY carefull when looking to buy one. The classic bike scene has suffered from this for some years now. I have seen fake Roundcase 750ss desmo's,B.S.A. Gold Star's, Rocket Gold Star's (R.G.S's) and other such collectable bikes. Either buy a known bike, do your homework or be prepared to catch a cold!!!!
