Subject: R U interested for hydraulic pretention for your rear spring?


Maybe you remember that earlyer this month I was looking for someone who
would be able to construcrt a hydraulic pretention ring for the rear
shock absorber of our bike.
Now I think I found one:
A friend of mine thinks he can make this (just like the WP one).
It would be a ring that you would fit on your rear suspension ,WP, or
the original Showa one, or any other type as long as someone sends us
the measurements (must be the same for all, but just to make sure).
This "preload ring" would make it real easy to adjust the preload, or
pretention of your rear spring.

Now, (since I already have one for myself), in order to start making
such a thing I want to know if you are interested.
The price we think would be arround 40.000 to 50.000 DRS, (143-180 US$,
or 230-288 DM) or maybe even
lower (the once on the market cost about 70.000 DRS = 251 US$, or 403
DM).
I must make it clear here that there is absolutely no proffit for me. 
I just think that 70.000 DRS is way too much to pay for such a simple
thing.

So, if you would be interested in such a thing, please right to me.
Ps. Such a thing could probubly be fitted also in other motorcycles as
long as the measurements of the rear suspension would be similar.
