SHOCKS & SPRINGS
| NJB CLASSIC RACING We have a limited number of "Classic Racing" shocks for cafe Featherbeds and Commandos. Supplied with a black damper body and chrome spring, they are available either with a chrome upper dust cover or with a fully exposed spring. They are very period looking as it was common in the 60's for those those building a race or cafe bike to either totally remove the dust covers that came on the factory Girling shocks or discard the black upper and replace it with the chrome lower. While more expensive than the standard NJB shocks and not having the standard spring pre-load adjuster, they have superior damping qualities as fitting a shock designed for racing. Remember these are intended for use on lightened race/cafe and average size riders not two up touring. The Commando versions (shown with the upper cover) are fitted with a shorter spring than normally seen to insure chainguard clearance. The Featherbed models are ideal for either cafe Nortons or Tritons.

PROREGSSIVE SUSPENSION We are currently going through their offerings for British models and have begun stocking their vintage 14 Series shocks & matching springs for the Commando at #S0140 - $198.00 per set. |
HAGON
This is the successor to the original Girling line of shocks and may be one of the better values (performance vs. price) at this
time. However while function seems fine their finish is not what it
could be. We are still in
the process of evaluating the offering of this line and will have more details posted shortly.
KONI
Koni shocks with adjustable dampening were our personal
favorites and are in use on our vintage race bike. They were a great
improvement over both OEM and most aftermarket shocks - at a price
considerably lower than the "built to order" brands. When Koni ceased
production a new company bought the tooling and reintroduced the line
under the IKON label. Unfortunately original Ikon importer found an
unacceptable number of these shocks to be defective on arrival and
dropped the line so at this time we do not have a source for a working
version.
EMGO
An economy shock similar in looks to the NJBs. Available only in 12.9"
length for Triumph (exposed or covered spring styles) or Commando (exposed
springs only).
NJB
Sold for over ten years, NJB shocks have been proven to be very reliable for
street use. The shock body is made in Taiwan by a company with 40 years
experience in the motorcycle field, the springs and optional shrouds are
made in England. NJB is owned by an ex Girling engineer and, once installed,
the shocks are hard to tell from Girlings.
