Anyone know much about EMC monoshocks?

Quality performance that sort of thing.

Do they have a website at all? I've come up with nada

enlightened us thusly:

dunno, but are the Quadrant lot still going? Got a quadrant one on the BM,
seems to work well enough.

EMC? Isn't that Dr. Erlich (whom God preserve) of Milton Keynes? Or one of
those places that have become Milton Keynes anyway. ISTR he had an
establishment next to a large Bowyers (sausages, etc) depot in the '60's.
He had given up bikes at that time and was working on marine outboards.
Recently he has sold the idea of a variable stroke (I think) engine to
Mayflower. Wasn't that impressed myself, but a lot of his stuff seemed to
work and he did smell nice.

Dr Ehrlich did at one point sell his shock absorber making business to an
old friend of mine, and it ran from an industrial unit in Kempston near
Bedford, but what's happened to it since then is anyones guess.

I'll do some digging about locally and see what I come up with.

Ta muchly, or any other decent quality shokkies for a K1100.

You got any contacts for bulk lube (wince). Dealers over here just
snigger when I ask for 25L drums at wholesale.
There is a price/supply fixing ring methinks.
