Hi there,

Moved up to a K 1100LT after 30 years on a R100RS.
Was never happy with the soft rear end on the R (fitted S&W air shocks).
Two up & touring seemed too much for the factory shocks.

I have bought a S/H Fornales rear shock for the LT (according to the seller on ebay).
Came with no info at all. Does anyone out there have any info or experience of these French shocks ?
All I know is they have a good reputation in the Moto X world.

Great owners group, already found answers to most of my queries in the Tech forum. Laughing

Thanks
Gary.

Motobins in the UK sell Fournales shocks, maybe worth an email to them to see if they could photocopy the instructions for you. They usually very helpful (www.motobins.co.uk). Alternatively the following link might be helpful: www.chopperresource.co.uk/my_uploads/ancillary/fournales3.pdf
