Hi Sean.
They are the el cheapo Tec shocks. For £79 you get nasty rubber bushes to fit yourself no adjustment other than preload and some extension pieces to extend the length. That said they are adjustable for length but we would be interested in their shortest setting which is there or thereabouts.

So for the money a complete waste then?

Not a bit of it. They work, they work very well. I only did 1000 miles with mine but they were great. Others have used them for longer with no apparent problems.
What happens when they wear out or start to leak? Simple, throw them away and buy another set.

The down pipes are too rounded for the angular look of the rest of the bike, too much of a contrast imo. I hope its loud. :D

Thanks Chris, that was exactly what I wanted to know. Just wanted to add one more thing to your review of them, they look good. :wink: Sean.
