Thanks for your response lemur. I live in France, but I'm a Brit ex-pat. I'm not sure I understand your comments. Why wouldn't you shop for used parts internationally and why wouldn't you buy used suspension parts? I've a long history of buying new and used stuff from all over the world, so I don't have an issue there. Why do you? Having parts in hand, even if they are worn or damaged is better than not having anything. Worn can be rebuilt and broken can be repaired... Thanks anyway. Cheers... Paul

Hello, I'm a noob to the forum, having just bought an Explorer. It needs some work, nothing dramatic, just fork seals and wheel bearings... oh, and a cylinder head to replace the cracked original... all which are in-hand. I've not ridden it much yet, but already it's a bit obvious the suspension lacks refinement. What I'd really like to do is replace everything with the TR280i kit, but parts seem almost as elusive as rocking-horse poop. Is anyone breaking a TR or have a shock and forks they're willing to part with? Thanks in advance. Cheers... Paul
