| Re: Brand Of Damper Go to Redwing Honda or Floyd Parkes Kawisaki for a Matris Damper. Try Redwing first. Ask for Perry or Dean. Tell them Trevor from Doin' Bikes sent you. I have them here in stock. Made in Italy, look trick, ARE trick and aren't as exp0ensive as the Ohlins, but as good in quality.

| Re: Brand Of Damper Hey Sliwa, welcome to the forum mate.  I've got the hyperpro damper that I bought of ratter son last year and It's great! They are significantly cheaper then anything else on the market. Honestly you don't need to spend a fortune on a damper cause there's really not much difference between them.  |

| Re: Brand Of Damper There's an old saying Omen, "you get what you pay for" and to an extent, it's true. Yes sometimesyou pay for the name, but I've had that many GHyper pro dampers come back leaking it ain't funny. Actually, The Matris dampers have come down a little. $789 - $989. They are aware of this now. Any probs, just get them to call me. The Matris dampers are Ohlins quality, but with Italian styling and looks. And yes, the price includes the bracket and mounts etc etc. |
