Have you worked on a lot of Wellington Bombers? If so, then you are older than I thought.I have a 232bar hand pump too - Tiny volumes. Originally designed to pressurise the hydraulics on Wellington Bombers. With dehumidifier.- Not that it really matters at 200bar.

progressive makes a great air shock,been using them for approx. 8 years and very trouble free.they are totally rebuildable if the need arises. around 325 bucks on line.it is a part no for Harleys and vtx , bikes the same size as ours.4161609a is the part no for a 13'' shock.i think that's 1/2 inch longer than stock.they inflate manually ,but once dialed in you wont want to change anyway.really transforms these bikes into a very plush ride that tracks amazing in the curves.oh and its not a thousand dollar gamble,if you don't like them.they look a lot like the front fork also,with the matching the brushed finish of front end.i mounted mine with the air lines hiddenunder the rear fender for a really clean look.with me at 250lbs 50-60lbs of air seems to be the sweet spot.

Oh all franchises can be broken. The "Refurbs" are factory only.
ANYBODY in the EU can buy LEGALLY from any dealer anywhere in the EU. If they say NO you can close them down (I have experience in other sectors - ahem).
Do Kiwis have to use the Tassie-Frog?
Not 100% sure about NZ set-up, I'd imagine so. Guess easy enough to have a friend in the UK or US purchase for you and forward on .. warranty issues or come re-build time it could get tricky.
