Shock I.D.
« on: September 01, 2012, 03:39:49 PM »
These are some racy looking rear shocks on my "new" R100S.

Dual springs, inverted reservoir and an air valve up top for...?

Can anyone identify these suspenders. Any useful knowledge amongst the group?

I would appreciate any help provided.

They look to me like "Works Performance" shocks.
