Re: 13" vintage BOGE shocks

Carving out a niesh with quality shocks it seems?
I need to get the specs of my Seeley.
Has some beat up Girlings on it now. Will want to replace them.

Re: 13" vintage BOGE shocks

I'm thinking these would be a little light duty for something like my SR500?

not sure tim what spring rate do you require ?

Re: 13" vintage BOGE shocks

Honestly don't know - I'm 175 pounds. The bike weighs 350. Just from reading some of the rebuild docs for the MX 1300 they talk about pretty small displacement dirt bikes, so wasn't sure if they'd be robust enough for a 500cc street bike.

Re: 13" vintage BOGE shocks

yeah tim the damping surely is a bit light,springs as well
from memory the rebound valve can be adjusted,they are much like an early koni only you have to take them apart to screw down/adjust the spring loaded rebound valving on the piston
anyway not worth the trouble
