Katana shock here ... its actually in excellent shape. Else I'd have sliced it open when I had it popped open. I was itching to ... But its actually great. $50 for it. Its got powdercoated everything, fluid column is painted, last week.

I also have a Bandit shock of some kind I am trading for fixing a shock of some other kind which I have not received yet ... OK OK later today Pics can come up. $30.

The buddha is selling all shocks ... cos there is many more that need to meet my saw blade ... or my contraption that can pop them open.
Cool.
