    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

What brand shocks?

Sweet :) if they are ?hlins.. Still cant find anything on google on that particular number. I guess I ought to take them apart to see what needs be replaced to stop that leak. One more item going on this winters to-do list :) What pressure N2 do you put in these things?
 
They do look quite a bit like those ones re the top part Steve. Seems they might be old ?hlins.

If its red its colormatched to the rest of the bike, at least for this specimen :) PO painted it red, put on red foam grips, painted the dark grey (or black?) part of the rims red and fitted red Shoei saddle bags...

I live in Sweden, home of the ?hlin shocks. I'll contact them and ask if they ever produced a su3021 model.

I looked on the bitubo homepage but model nos starting with su I did not find. They only seem to have one and the same example picture for all the models also so that was not of much help.

Thanks for the input :)

I wonder...does the SU stand for Suzuki...or possibly Suomi?

What does it say on that black sticker?
 
Yep - pretty sure they're the older style Ohlins. Like the ones on my Kat;

I can get a close up photo if you need one - let me know.
 
The black sticker says Baja Grips USA which had me confused for a while until I understood that a previous owner must have put Baja Foam Grips on the bike, gotten stickers with the grips and put the stickers on the shocks :) I had never heard of Baja Grips before so I thought that was the brand of the shocks. Googling that got me nothing :)
