Why are these so inexpensive? Honda Ct70 New Gas Shocks

[Adam-NLV]

I remember when "Gas" CT70 shocks were north of $150.00
I know these come only in green but they would be cool on my 73 k3 because the decal "Trail 70" is in green.
I'm also a little leery about the photo not really showing the entire shock....I think this guy travels internationally to pick up this stuff, like maybe from Thailand.

Adam I bought a set and have had them for almost a year. My only complaint is the springs are a tad too stiff.I weigh 180 and have the springs at their lowest setting.The body of the shocks are threaded and has a collar so you can adjust the preload and another to lock your adjustment,but I have them at their lowest setting.

Thanks Gary, yep those are the ones. I'm guessing these were made for a heavier bike other than our Fav lil CT. I'm at 173lbs myself so they'd be stiff for me too, I like the price though. : )
