Anyone had any experience with Gazi?
i really know nothing about them but they pride themselves in quality. not sure where theyre made. they try to promote as australian. around 800 bucks plus freight in oz. a rebuild on my standard ones is 400. thats what ill do again when needed. thats with wilbers springs. they work perfectly as far as i can tell. same story as my forks, rebuild was well worth the not so expensive bucks. wilbers in front also. brilliant suspension now, just from my point, im no expert. supple over bumps but firm. no more nose dive. 800 well spent i reckon.
I thought the standard shock were non reparable.
my bloke does them, no probs.
Spotted the Gazi's on fleabay in Black they look fantastic but bit pricey at £650!

Are they good enough quality to bother with, most OEM shocks ae pretty poor.
Google "Gazi Shocks Review" - not a great deal of reviews, but they may help you decide.
I've run Gazi fully adjustables on several Dynas (Harleys) now and they've been great. Our workshop manager also runs them on his and he's had a great deal of experience with suspension working with Superbike teams in a previous life. Rates them. They should be around that $800 mark and you can set them up with adjustable height eyelets as well. Based at Albion for those that live in Brisbane.

Nope, absolutely definitely can be rebuilt.

Who's your bloke? I got mine done here: http://www.radmotorcycleshockyrepairs.com.au/
Good service and price.
As far as aftermarket ones go.. people rave about the really expensive Hagon Nitros but I think Gazi would be more than enough for anything a GSX1400 is going to be dealing with. I'd go with the Gazi if replacing.
Hi Vlad,
I'm currently running Hagon Nitro's but considering swapping for the Gazi, partly based on looks I have to admit :undecided: but seems there is little 'user' feedback on the Gazi so difficult to know how they compare.
I have no issues with the Hagon's they were on the bike when I bought it so I have no ref point.
