Hit the RGV and Aprilia forums for a cheap shock. They're always upgrading as we are - slightly ironic ;)

I have a RS250 shock on my NC30 trackbike. I am not too happy with it and am thinking of changing it for a Nitron one, the RS250 one is too soft.

I did run it for a while with just a new spring but it began to leak after a few runs. So I had it rebuilt and has a 850 spring fitted.

If you are interested I will let it go for £160. It cost £100 to be rebuilt.

email me at mick@virginiacheeseman.co.uk if you want to discuss it.

Mick
