You want to join Oldskoolsuzuki, you do. And TLPlanet as well, if you've not already. And then possibly, not shoehorn a shock from another bike into a 120bhp bike

Don't bid, just make sure you're in front of the PC when it ends

A real pity, that is the best mod for the TLS rear end I'm told. Stops the rotary damper snapping the frame lug I hear.
