Default Used Tockico Blues?

was pondering around ebay despite having stuff to study for...

came across a set of Tockico Blues, front and rear for sale, 89 bucks, 2 days left, 11 bids... they have 5 thousand miles on them, they look clean in the pics...

they worth going after? or should I just save up for a new set, or save up for some Illuminas (adjustable)

I would keep an eye on them- one of the best bang for the buck struts/shocks there is, IMO.

I think new they run somewhere around 300 bucks...

I know the illuminas are over 500.

I am still riding on stockers, god knows how worn they are.... potholes, speed bumps etc, even at slow speeds are bone jarring

IIRC, Ebay has them new for 237. brenspeed also has them at a good price.

and bill, if your shicks/struts were going bad, you would ahve a really floaty ride, not jarring. unless they are blown completely

I may not jump on them, considering how good of a deal they seem to be, forgot I have a few other things I need to fix... the big thing on the list now, weatherstripping... mine has more cracks than the liberty bell
