Matris rear shocks to Oz

I have just got in a Matris rear shock for my 600RR to check it out, and it is a work of art. Has all the trick stuff on it, and looks just amazing. Taking it out to Terry Hay this week for him to have a look at and see what he thinks, before I throw it (by throw I mean, install gently.haha)in the bike and see how she goes. Here's a pic.

Re: Matris rear shocks to Oz

Hey Sook, What sort of price will they be selling for? and do they have all the usual adjustments? high and low speed compression adjustment?

Re: Matris rear shocks to Oz

It'll retail for $17-1800 AUS and it has ALL the trick stuff on it, Hydraulic spring pre load adjuster, high and low speed damping, ride height etc. Before you say you can get an Ohlins for that sort ofmoney, you can, but not the equivelent model to this with the hydraulic pre load, and high speed damping etc. I'm taking it out to Terry Hay at Shock Treatment for him to have a look before I put it in my bike. Will let you know what he says and how it is on my 600RR.
