.....any good ? Cheap and cheerful or cheap and dreadful ?

Mark(lonsdale) was saying they are ok for the money and a couple of other peeps have them.

Thoughts.

seems popular at the moment but as they're relatively new who knows whatll happen in a years or two time wit them... for the price and current thoughts they seem ok for the money... they're never going to compete in quality or longevity i wouldnt have thought with the likes of ohlin, maxton, etc. all in my opinion but they seem ok for the outlay... pay fluff the ££ and try em out i think

Had them on my 250 kat for a month now and they seem fine, they are a little bit softer than the aftermarket shocks that were on the bike before but I think that is a good thing, don't know what they will be like on a larger bike (750cc plus) check out my thread in the pictures section, they look great in the metal, funny thing was after checking out websites of people who had fitted these one owner said 'they bed in fine after 500 miles' I do about 300 miles a year so i'll let you know how good they are in two years time :) p.s mine have 'rfy' stamped at the top, there are lots of clones but I went for these because they are rebuildable.
