Re: Bargain
nice one. Maxton service them so no probs there. Mention your weight etc and they'll make sure you get the correct spring too.

Re: Bargain
It's going straight back to Maxton as soon as it arrives here - they rebuilt the internals of the Maxton shock on my Gixer thou and did a wonderful job of getting the spring rate spot on for my weight.

Re: Bargain
both ends of the speed triple were re-built by Maxton, good job then done as well.
Cheers Mark.

Re: Bargain
They modified the forks on both my Firestorm and my Gixer Thou to suit me. Until about 2 1/2 years ago I was seriously underweight at 9 stone, so suspension always needed sorting professionally.

Re: Bargain
All depends on what you need doing, like if a spring change is needed, and changes to the damping rate. I haven't paid for a shock rebuild for about 6 years, and it was 85 quid back then. The Gixer one was rebuilt under warranty because the seals blew prematurely.
Having the Firestorm forks modified cost me 250 quid in 1998 |
