Are you sure it's the shocks? Mine bounces a lot and I figured out that it is the springs in the seat almost launching me when I hit a bumpy road.

Easy enough to check. Put it on the center stand and bounce on it a bit. Mine is like being on a ride at the amusement park and I think that that is normal.

Bill Silvers Honda 250-305cc Twins Books on CD,gives a good discription of what a good shock should be like. Its bouncy. The CD covers about everything about the CA 77 and more. Its worth buying.

Has anyone fitted Hagon shocks to their CA 77, or is this sacralism?
