Koni Dial-a Ride spare parts

[Gelandestrasse]

These famously rebuildable shocks (I've done a pair back in 2022 for my R90S).

However, does anyone know where to get spares (specifically the rod seals or a seal kit) over the counter in the UK? Just sprung s leak on another bike and need to rebuild PDQ for a trip to France....

Any help gratefully received

Google Ikon shock absorbers

It’s been a while since I last saw them, but they did kits and were born from the closure of Koni

You are correct, thanks, but they are in Australia. I am looking for a UK importer/agent. And I have already popped a message in IKON's intray.

I have been doing this for some time and phoned a few companies that dealt with them in the past (and see Ikon message above).

I'm after an over-the-counter suggestion, in the UK, or maybe if someone has a spare seal kit in a drawer in their workshop.....

Last seal kit I got was from Norman Hyde

Can’t help with spare parts but I can lend you a pair if things get iffy

 

[mikeyboy]

Maybe contact lucaz at TTech(denzo)
He might be able to steer you in the right direction

Have you asked around suspension places? DenzO on here, Rock Shocks may have same seals?



Too late.

Thank you all for your inputs. Update so far:

I am sorted, via a recommendation from the importers* who said they could order some (had no current stock) but they would come from Australia (I would time out for my trip). They gave me the name of a sports suspension independent and that proved fruitful. I hope to reveal their name in my next post but want to check if they want to be suppliers or remain rebuilders.

Could supply:

- Performance Parts RFT (as above)

- Ikon said they could supply a kit and send it to the UK for AUS$105 (again the time issue is at risk) about £56.

- Beemer Shop (Ted Porter) sent a nice reply from USA but said the price would be prohibitive (US$49 + $69 postage)

Couldn't supply:

- Norman Hyde (Motolegends)

- T-Tech Suspension

No response yet:

- TLM in Netherlands

- Stein-Dinse (Germany)

- Gutsibits

- Motorworks

* Performance Parts Ltd supplied me with stock back in 2022; they are in Daventry and were the importers then. Performance Parts RFT are current importer and are in Mytchett, Surrey.

Thanks for the update, very useful

Took one shock apart today only to find the top adjuster seal was leaking, not the lower ones. So luckily I had the seal from the last rebuild I did. I'll finish the refurb once the seals arrive and then attack the other, non- leaking one (the fluid really needed changing in the one today so best to do both while I'm at it).
