** I found the disc with the other pictures on it, I have other catalogs but TNC is your best bet on that one. (The oil inside overheats) However modern shocks are much better designs and quality so consider that before using any old crusty swap meet find. My experience with vintage shocks on front ends were that ridden hard, the shocks got overwhelmed and didnt perform well. The dealer then fitted the springs to the application IE: 250cc Triumph vs 500 vs 650 or 750 Triumph but most ran the same shock. For example on vintage British bikes most were fitted with one specific brand and the specs were the length and shrouded or unshrouded. Shock absorbers themselves are just a shock and designed for certain applications but dont care if its on the back of a Bagger, Minibike, or a Girder, they have holes and fluid inside, the spring and free length as well as travel are specced to match the application. TNC seems good at ID'ing period front ends, on the springer "How do they ride" post I inserted some period photos of the Jammer catalog as I have several old copies, but they ran a shock on Girders and IMHO was one of the best setups.īut not all girders run a shock, some just a spring (Bouncy Bouncy) and springers & Girders with only springs tend to pogo.
