1982 Katana shocks

[Suzuki_dog]

A long shot question, anyone out there have a set of '82 OEM rear shocks for a Katana that they would part with? Mine are leaking and trying to stay original.

Thanks

Joe

That guy (Rob) does have a ton of stuff, and I am pretty sure not all of it is listed on that page, so he may have some. I need shocks myself, but probably ain't going stock...

Good luck!

Thanks anyway. I think he was on GSR, I posted a wanted ad there, also. Rob the Kat guy said he had a pair, rough condition. I asked for photos. I am also looking to see if these can be rebuilt, I know a guy, who knows a guy....lol!

I have a set, they look fine, but no guarantee about how they work.
Not sure I want to sell them , but maybe.

BUT

I just moved home and shop, I may not find them for months.
If you don't find a set sooner let me know.

Thanks. Still checking on having mine rebuilt.

I also have a spare set that don't leak but haven't tried them on the bike.
Quickest form of contact for me would be [email protected]
