Come on..ive started things off !!!:D

Wouldnt pay too much though...the strada showas work well for road use, and without slating people whove already got them..they pop fork seals like there going out of fashion ! (I think they are also oversprung, but these have been sorted by the looks of it)

I think youll also find they are not WSB spec...just taken out of an SP4 probably..

Cheers
Nat

Oye you lot, hands off, their mine.
when I spoke with sparkin at rocky he said he did'nt want any, or was he fibbing:lol::lol::lol:.

as far as i know they are sp4's

woud'nt go over £250.00 thought, since I've found 2 more sets for sale privately.

we'll see though, ebay being what it is....:lol::lol::lol:


fully floating rear brake would be a better and functional option in real world riding


cheers

Although they are very nice, for the money you would be better of getting the originals reworked and set up. unless you race, or need extra bling.

Have to agree with you Nat,not worth it,I like me Bling as much as the next Keefyboy:P;) but for road use and the miles I do I can`t afford to keep replacing seals.Now if they were £250..................................So i`m doing what Gordy said and reworking mine with Hyperpro conversion over the winter.

:o Didnt know he had mate until you bought it to my attention....hmmmmm. Im not bothered..they were probably knackered old showas with polished lowers and gold nail varnish painted uppers anyway..:lol:

Anyway..ive got other things on my mind...stayed awake last night dribbling over throttleons 916SP3 for sale...A guy has been pestering me to sell him my 888 for ages..hmmmm

COME ON BOYS REMIND ME WHAT A MUPPET IM BEING !!!!

Now if I can only persuade mrs nattyboy that a 916SP3 will be a much prettier investment than a friggin hot tub in the garden....

:devil::devil:

Oh I don't know. It's a much better investment than an ordinary hot tub for sure...but a 'friggin hot tub' sounds like fun :devil:
