“Hello Ed,
Go ahead and reach over your shoulder and give yourself a pat on the back. Â The rebuilt shock now sprung properly works like a dream. Â Jaw dropping and truly awesome. Â My GS went from baby buggy to guided missile. I put the bike through all its paces, drove it hard and fast and performance is truly enhanced. Â Gone is the springy all over-the-place ride now replaced with a sharp, firm and decisive ride. Â I now can break hard in the turns without the rear wheel moving sideways. Â It’s now planted and the bike goes exactly where and when I want it to. Â What I thought was too much clearance above ground causing a poor ride was all suspension. Â The bike now steers with the hips, and follows my inside knee. Â I can lean over confidently and find myself in a taller gear moving faster and still with plenty of comfort. Â Job well done! Â Many thanks. Â I also like the color of the aftermarket spring. I am 100% satisfied.”
I rebuilt Martin’s BMW GS rear shock and gave it a stronger spring. Â I think he’s happy. Â I think I may have to turn From Baby Buggy to Guided Missile into a slogan.
