Front Shocks (and arms) for Round Headlight 12v cub

Post by knapdog » Tue Jul 18, 2017 5:43 pm

Does anyone have left and right shocks, including arms, for early eighties 12v round headlight cub that they'd like to sell please?
The left, as you look from the front, must have the tab that slides into the groove on the exterior brake cover, when fitted.
Thanks.

Square headlight 12v cubs shocks are same as the 12v round headlight shocks,just the later ones have no grease nipples like the earlier ones.
Think the 12v shocks are the same on both just the arm's different.

....... but I'm still looking for a set!
They seem around £50 on ebay for a pattern set but being old school I'd prefer genuine, albeit second hand.
