Anyone know where i can get a set of new or reconditioned rear shocks for my Bantam D10? Or maybe someone can recondition the set i have?

Did you decide to get the dampers? I have a D175 with the same problem. I bought these (see pix) but they are too long and lift the centre stand up making the parked bike unstable; so are the new ones you got the same size as the originals (length and diameter)? also can the outer shrouds that cover the springs be taken off to resemble my model D175?
At last now I have the time to play with classic Brit bikes and cars!
