yep thats it. Now you can go to the adverts section and place a wanted ad for what you are after. I suggest you use both the forum wanted section as well as the formal ads section. The former allows people to discuss it with you without me whingeing and the latter gets automatically transfered to an ad in the Jampot if you don't get what you need. (if you do, close off the advert by using the adverts, my adverts section)
Thanks Clive
Ps I think there is difficulty in sourcing the lightweight rear shocks with the long section if that is what you are after.

Quite hard to find replacements, thread about finding new ones here. http://www.jampot.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=9431

Easiest solution seems to be finding shocks the right length (e.g. 390mm Betor MX) rather than looking for original replacements.

ta for that bbenxe, was a good read, i dont think the ones on mine are the original ones and as you say its finding ones the correct lenght. Sad thing ive found is there is not much support for the lightweight owner in spares most places i have been to or contact say they dont have any or much for them this surprised me as i seem to have meet lots trying to get bits for there bike, so there seems to be a call for it. All my parts or 90% have come from e-bay and have been in real bad condition and it takes an age to get them back to be useful again.
