Hagon vs. Stock shock
 
My rear shock is starting to collapse, so I am looking around to replace it.
The Hagon shocks come in at roughly the same price as a new stock Yamaha shock.
The bloke at the Yamaha dealer reckons that they use Hagon's on Ducati mods.
Has anybody had experience of using a Hagon on their Tenere and can you comment?
Thanks
Geoff

Have you priced other 3rd party shocks, such as Technoflex? Might even get an Ohlins on German Ebay.

Last time I looked (for my street bike) I thought Hagon's prices were pretty high.

One of the companies sponsoring my trip is AllBike Engineering in London.

They can rebuild / repair almost any shock and fit a spring of your choosing, probably for ~150 quid.

I've used them before (fork legs, disks and a shock rebuild) and I was impressed.

Rebuild and repair costs about 90 Euro here which is about 60 Pounds.

Thanks Guys,
After being burnt once by a 'rebuild',
I've ordered the stock Yamaha shock £275.
