New Ricor shock for the AT

[coldstart]

I appears that Ricor is getting close to building a rear shock for the ATs and Transalps.

To complete the job I have to provide specifications for eye-to-eye length for the RD 03, 04 and 07 shock.

I need the measurement for fully extended and also fully compressed.

Compressed length can be taken up to the contact point with the bumper and then just provide the thickness of the bumper.

I have a RD03 shock so I can provide measurements for those and, I assume, the RD04 shock is the same. It's the 07 shock I'm not sure about.

I've also posted this on advrider but I want to be certain about any differences between the models. I know the frame changed with the RD07 models but I don't think the suspension linkage changed. If it has, please advise. If any of the shock dimensions (mounting bolt diameter, width of the "U" shaped bottom mount etc) are different for the RD07, please let me know as soon as possible.

A few months ago, I said I'd let you all know about rear shock development. It now appears to be very close.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide. I'll make all information concerning availability and pricing known as soon as possible. The new IAS shocks have gotten great review with the KLR650 crowd here in the States.

Any news on this Ladder106? Do you think Ricor will have a rear shock for us anytime soon?
