Hi, just a quick question, what length rear shocks are people running on their Grippers, has anybody tried the NJB Trikshocks on them?
Thanks
Giles

I am using Betor gas shocks on mine and so far I am pleased with them. I thought at first that they were too soft with the regular spring and the forward mount but after riding awhile I think I will leave them be. I weigh about 200 lb. dressed to ride. DonD

Don't know if your still looking for this info but I am in the middle of doing uo a pair of 250 grippers, both sets of shocks on mine are 360mm in length centre to centre. I will be going for two different sets of shocks, rockshocks on one and gas filled betor on the other, I have a couple of friends running rock shocks and reckon these will be better for competition on a bike I intend to keep the betor shocks are really good for something that won't get ridden as much or will maybe be sold.
