PM Glen to see if he wants to sell his Gazis. As I said, he is looking at getting Ohlins and might do it sooner if he has a buyer lined up for his Gazis.

Two best things I have done to my ZRX - Ohlins and centrestand. Worth every cent.

The Ohlins changed the bike- no rear wallow at all. I can only imagine how an Ohlins front would be. I thought they would make the suspension harsh- it is the opposite- a magic carpet ride. Bumps felt at the front aren't felt at the rear and comfy as.

So I waited 2 days for gazi to call me back but still no call back. I rang yesterday at 8.30 and he was going to call the factory and ring me back with a lead time....... oh well I have ordered a set of hagon's great to deal with, rang me back just to check details. I will use these until I can afford ohlins.

I use Hagon shocks on one of my bikes, they can be set up exactly as you specify from the importer - guessing you were speaking to Darryl at Moose Racing ? He is a great bloke to deal with.

I installed the hagons today and they look and feel great, the service I received was really great. I am just disappointed with gazi as I am still waiting for them to call me back with a leadtime.
