This flexible magnetic grabber has got me out of sticky situations over the years, not needed as much on the Triumph but does come in handy at times.

Had a giggle at this Ian....do you have 999 on quick dial 🤔😂😂 Should you be allowed near any power tools (or tools in general)

Tickets are now available online & with the promo code only £5.50 👍

But you can still buy standard units over the pond, these are KYB dampers rebadged to GSA280HD (off a GMC Truck) - There can’t be that many rotoflex GT6’s in the States either 🤷♂️ I suppose someone has latched on that they also fit the Triumph & being massed produced, they cream a few off for Triumph’s - I’m aware Spitbits sell them as GSA280HD. There are companies within the UK that order and use the same damper, they’re just missing a trick/opportunity.

Nothing wrong with Gaz as non-standard dampers, it’s just the fact that OEM style dampers are no longer available. So rather than pay £50/£70 for a pair of adequate dampers, you are forced to pay £150+ for something you didn’t (given a choice) want 🤷♂️

KYB are a Japanese company.

You can but at a price.....we’ll over £200 🤷♂️🤷♂️ The KYB type are around £80 a pair but again extremely difficult to source in the UK.

Sadly as OEM rear dampers for the rotoflex GT6 is made of unobtainable, Gaz shocks were the only alternative.

So after days trying, I’ve had to give in and order the Gaz dampers from Rimmers. The KYB ones are available within the warehouse in the UK but try as I might, you just can’t get anyone to actually order them....even after contacting KYB-Europe for assistance 🤷♂️ So, my simple next question is - What’s the best setting to set these Gaz ones to for normal every day driving? Unless you go Gaz or modify the damper position, it seems rotoflex standard dampers are no longer available.

They are only middle men, the offers they suggest on certain tyres are nonexistent as you can get them cheaper direct - It’s a big scam! They were good when they first started off but as everything else they’ve just become greedy.
