Ikon shocks for CB1100

[PowerDubs_imp]

Here's Icon's response. Believe me, I'm not switching shocks because I want to throw $$ at the bike. I've got two others that really need some maintenance. I cannot believe I'm the only 160 pound rider of the CB that thinks it is sprung like a buckboard. But perhaps I am.
===========================================
Hello Bob,

Thank you for your inquiry regarding shocks for your 2014 Honda CB1100.

Apologies for any difficulty you've experienced in contacting us by 'phone; at the end of Summer 2016, Ikon Suspension USA relocated from the west coast to the east coast with a change of 'phone number which is now (814) 592-7003.
The website address remains unchanged at IkonSuspensionUSA.com

There are 3 different specifications of Ikon shocks available for the CB1100
i) Ikon Basix, oil damped ii) Ikon 7610 series dial-a-ride oil damped iii) Ikon 7614 series, dial-a-ride, oil and nitrogen damped.

The following prices are in US Dollars and are current as of May 2017.

The 76 series Basix (part# 76-1507) has 3 position adjustable pre-load (main spring) but no adjustable rebound damping.
Chrome body, black spring.
Cost $280.00/pr. plus $25 insured shipping.

The 7610 series (part# 7610-1507) has 3 position adjustable pre-load (main spring) and 4 position finger adjustable rebound damping called dial-a-ride. Briefly, rebound damping is the speed at which the shock returns to its original length after hitting a bump or dip in the road.
>Chrome body, black spring or Black body, black spring (add SP14 to the part number) Cost $ 420.00/pr. plus $25 shipping.
>Chrome body, chrome spring, chrome short top cap (add SP8 to the part number) Cost $580.00/pr. plus $25 shipping.

The 7614 series (part# 7614-1507) has a wide range of pre-load adjustment as the aluminum body is threaded, using locknuts to compress the main spring to adjust it's pre-load. This oil/nitrogen damped shock also has dial-a-ride and is very popular with racers. Available with either a black or red powder coated spring.
Cost $ 600.00/pr. plus $25 shipping.

We have a range of chrome or black spring covers either 30mm or 70mm long which will fit the above shocks. Priced at $ 50.00 per pair, we can install them on shocks prior to shipping. Top covers serve no function other than styling.

Specifications:
Ikon shocks to suit the CB1100 measure 362mm or 14.25" long (center top eye to center lower clevis). Travel is 64mm or 2.52" All shocks come with a 12mths warranty. All Ikon shocks are completely re-buildable, so in effect, Ikon shocks are shocks for the life of the bike.

Springs:
The 76, 7610, 7614 series Ikon shocks use a 250mm long spring of which there are 2 spring rate options available. The first option, with an 8mm wire diameter, is rated at 19-42 N/mm (106-235 Lbs/inch) suitable for riders weighing in the 175-250+ weight range, the other with a lighter 7.5mm wire diameter, is rated at 15-28 N/mm (84/157 Lbs/inch) suitable for riders under 175lbs.
Our website (presently on the cusp of a major overhaul) does not presently offer spring rate options. Customers are welcome to contact us by email: Hello@IkonAmerica.com or call their order in on (814) 592-7003 and we will 'spring' their shock to suit their curbside rider/passenger/luggage weight at no extra charge.
Buying a pair of Ikons is like buying a tailor made suit, rather than one off the peg. They always 'fit' the rider better.

I believe I've answered all of your questions regarding Ikon shocks for the CB1100 but I always invite questions (and orders!) from forum members.

Enjoy the improved ride,
Roger

Does anyone know which spring comes by default? I am trying to find the best price I can for these shocks- but no site lists anything about springs.
