Yeah, that's the actual shock he's selling. It's the photo he sent me.

It ain't pretty but I thought someone handy could sand and repaint it.  :dunno_white:

Whaaaaat ... You guys pester me for a $25 shock and now this thing is rolling around in here and no one has bought it ... you kids are crazy ...
You want pretty, ship it to me and toss me $15 or so and I'll powdercoat/paint it till its blue ...  :laugh: ... or yeller ... or red, or green ... hell no ... but it can be done in some cool sheite colors ... I'll paint the body and (OK OK I dont paint, I dont like to paint, I dont like to sniff paint ... but it is hot and fairly good weather, so paint it I can, with rattle can) ... add $5 if that is needed. And I'll send you a shock that looks like new and lasts longer than new (looks only, internals no clue) ...
BTW I have done ~200 carbs, and my thought is, the rear shock which is usually less than the $$ of the rejet is actually a better mod ... OK fine if carbs are clogged bike dont run, and that is important.
OK off the soapbox, do as you will.
Cool.
Buddha.

Hey Buddha, did you get to see my last post over at this thread?:

http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=42190.20

Cause if you're saying what I think you're saying, I'll send you my ugly shock and you can purdy it up with a rattle can for $5?  :thumb:

Maybe I should buy this one, too, and have you make it all purdy...then resell it here. I bet everyone will want it then!  :laugh: :laugh:

I will paint the fluid capsule part for $5. Springs and collars cannot be painted, they have too many surfaces and holes and nooks and crannies ... they have to be sand blasted and powdercoated. So for $5, you will get a barely less ugly shock. Make it $20 or so and it can be purdy ...
Cool.
Buddha.
