Anyone any experience with EMC or Hagon shocks?

alternatively you can add a spacer between the top of the rear shock, and the sub frame(10 mm equates to 30mm(spot on) in ride height, due to dog bone and linkage).

This only works for an NC35 though.

I've ordered new seals and bushes for the front forks and see how they feel after a rebuild before thinking about progressive springs.

So i am still trying to choose the right option for the rear shock. My current options are:

Rebuild and resprung original shock from a company on ebay £140.00 + buy jack up link £70.00 = £210.00

Hagon Shock £250.00 + buy jack up link £70.00 = £320.00

EMC Shock £250.00 + buy jack up link £70.00 = £320.00

Nitron Shock off ebay rrp £450 buy now £350 which i think is height adjustable = £350.00

Nitron road shock sprung to correct weight, i think includes heigh adjustment = £350.00

Maxton shock sprung to correct weight = £405.00

Its a costly affair thats for sure.

The jack up link is only £35, also hagon and emc shocks can probably be ordered longer than standard so won't need one.

You'll definately need new springs for the forks as well unless you only weigh 9 stone.

Are the standard Jap ones really that soft?
I weight 10.5 Stone so i may benefit from a stiffer setup.

I know Hagon do progressive springs for £55 and Rick Oliver does a kit for £80.

I can sense more overtime at work!

Thanks for all the input guys, keep it coming.
