Gabriel shocks?

[ducatilover]

Has anybody used Gabriel shocks before? Looking at getting a set for the GN600.
They look well priced and look nice and classical.
Are they any good? Serviceable?

Or, has anybody got any twin shocks floating around? 300-340mm I could deal with, preferably the longer.

I've got a used set of Monroes off my HiAce kicking around somewhere if you want those?

I think it'll work out for a set at $120 or so, they're supposedly unused
And going on a GN with too much motor

Well they will look period, dont expect great bump absorption quality. They will almost certainly be sealed for life.

That's the reason why I want 'em ;)
I'd expect bump absorption will be an improvement over the original "shocks"

I might have to buy 'em. Better than spending similar coin on no-name eGay ones that look pretty. Or buying another set of OEM units, which are a joke even brand new

The bike owes me just under $1k currently and it's being built on a tight budget.

It's only a GN :crazy:
