replacement rear shocks

[taroha10]

Hi all, having just rode the Super Rocket for the first time in a while, it really showed up how bad the rear shocks are. Has anyone any ideas on good replacements that they have tried and liked.. The ones on it are possibly original. I am not bothered about the look so much as something that gives a nice ride. Bike is mainly used solo with the occasional pillion. Dont mind spending a few quid within reason.
Cheers. mark

Armstrong (DOT) are available and good, also Hagon make a range of shocks for classic bikes in varying styles and are good as well, having said that at the moment I have on my Flash a set of the popular type sold by many dealers at shows and auto-jumbles for around 60 UK pounds they look right and work fine also.
 Oh try to get the right length off the top of my head I think it's 12.5 inches and a proper fitting C spanner is good also

All the best - Bill

Thanks Bill, must admit I haven't looked at all yet but wanted to get some feedback on what others have liked.My last flash had Hagons on the back but it was a few years ago so can't remember much.
Will start looking. Cheers again, Mark.

Plenty to be had on the old auction site of course, as many of our traders sell there (although not always under there usual name) it's not a bad option just take note of the feedback
