Ikon Shocks - Wicked price

[Guest]

Hey folks, I just got an email from an Ikon Supplier in Canada - the price they quoted me was $360.00 Canadian (not including shipping) It seems like a great price so I thought I might share with everyone!

He has none in stock, but is placing an order in January so can bring them in then. I think I will likely order a set as I have been looking at progressives, but with that price they are not that far apart on the bottom line.

If your looking for a set you might want to contact him soon.

Yeah, but then it hits international shipping rates, and then brokerage fee and taxes when it comes across the border. Adds up really quickly coming this way.

Plus the IKONS are rebuildable and as I understand it are a superior product.

I very seriously considered the Progressives first, but everything I see points to the IKONS being the better deal in the long run, at least for me.

Someone else on the forum purchased a set of Ikons, had good reports
on them

I bought a set a few years ago. They are great.... Worth every penny!

Progressive Series 14 progressive shocks are even cheaper at roughly $100-120 a pair and they're extremely better than old mushy shocks.

I bought a pair of IKONs for my Katana 1100 and they're great. Not only adjustable preload (3 positions) but adjustable damping too (4 positions). And fully rebuildable, with all seals & parts readily available from IKON.

I've been thinking of ordering some this spring, maybe I'll contact him while he's doing an order.

BTW, if you ever get the chance to travel to where he is (Nakusp), be aware it's a stunningly beautiful, really inexpensive place with absolutely fabulous riding roads and low traffic volumes. Mountains, lakes, plenty of camping, hot springs, funky old art-colony towns (e.g. New Denver, Nelson), wine tours next valley west, the works.

I have the ikons on the arse of my GS750B.

I will NEVER ever go backward to a standard gas or oil shock again.

They are just awesome, 3 spring positions, 4 damper positions, awesome, even on our crappy aussie roads!
