Well spotted, but $33.55 to post to the UK though - gold plated jiffy bag?

But wont you have to wear leather chaps, sport a handle bar moustache and sing in the village people to have anything from Hardley Movingson on your bike?

Who cares that is still c£100 cheaper than racetech ones.

And yes I know it says h*rl*y on site... but valves are made in taiwan so they should be OK!

Good find.

If I wasn't getting shot of the SV I'd give them a bash for the £45 or so they'd cost in total to get them here.

Look like rip-offs of the Racetech ones to me.

They work the same way but lets face it a checkplate and a preloaded pop off valve to sit on top of a damper rod is hardly exclusive technology.

I don't know who thought of them first TBH but it wouldn't surprise me. Racetech are certainly not the only company who manufacture an emulator of sorts.

get me a flight for that and I will pick them up! Lol

racetec copies already seen and tried. Not as good as the racetecs.

Racetech copies you mean these?

And quantify not as good, such a basic part can't really be bad unless it's not flat. Not as good is a pretty meaningless statement.

Good spot Chris,

I will have a think about purchasing a set. Emulators were on my shopping list anyway but £140 was outside what I can justify at present.
