    Rocket,
    Actually saw them first at MCAS Auburn but they only had the Grips and were not expecting the supplier to bring the rest in.

    I wanted the full set and found a US company Riders Discount who supplied me the lot:

    I got

    3 sets of Avon Contour Tribal Spiked folding pegs (Riders,Pillion and Highway)
    3 Avon Tribal Contour Spiked Shifter Pegs (One for shifter and two for modified brake)
    1 Set Avon Tribal Contour Spiked Grips

    All up about $420.00 with postage. May be able to find somewhere that will do better but these guys were pretty good to deal with.

    Just waiting on a package with my new shocks and fathers day before I start fitting.

    Deadwood,
    I am an old codger,
    It will take me a couple of hours to change the springs and oil in the front forks.
    All this will be interspaced with procrastination fluid and much discussion.

    Might finish in a day but not sure, anyway springs arrived today but will probably not get to em this weekend as riding North up to the Cessnock swap meet.

    Regards
    Nigel

    Unpacked the springs and shocks last night. Look pretty good to me and will look good up against the Avon bits. Here are some pics of the parts.

    This is the 430's
