I have just replaced the hagons on my 1979 strada with a set of shocks off a Kawasaki ER5, a reasonable condition set cost me around £40 inc postage on ebay. They fitted straight on. The pair I got did not have the bushes in the top mounting when they arrived, however I took the ones from the worn out hagons and they fitted straight into the Kawasaki shocks. The shocks are off a 500cc bike, so they are designed for a heavier bike than the morini, but I'm 6ft and 16 stone, and I carry camping gear, so slightly stiffer shocks is probably a good thing.

sounds the way to go will have a look for a used pair on ebay or perhaps forum folk will turn something up, thanks for info appreciated, muller.

Hi - I've got some Sebacs that were a replacement set on a Sport that was scrapped a couple of years ago. They look in pretty good condition, no leaking and have red bodies and springs. I'd want £35 + postage. I can take a picture if you are interested.
Cheers
Adam
