I sent one away to be rebuilt once, they said they couldn't find a bump stop and there wasn't anybody that made them with that dia rod, so it wasn't worth rebuilding. This was a fair few years ago now and I just bought a new shock.

No mate, didn't see that one. Mine was a grand , but needed a lot of work . I guess UK ones are worth a bit more but at the end of the day things are only worth what people are willing to spend on them. Finally looking forward to riding mine, just waiting for the tank to come back from the painters.
