John,
What was the price to the USA these days (this is who I had emailed before a
year or so ago) and does the rear shock come standard with the remote
preload feature or is it an option? I never really ever got that question
answered by them before.
Thanks...Bob B.

I have a pair on order from William Kroon...Netherlands. At first they were
reluctant to even sell in the US. I pushed the issue and they accepted the
order. Pricing wasn't great but they have a nice WEB site..:>) I placed an
order on the WEB site for a YA302 and a YA303 with the rear spring the next
size up. I am hoping for delivery before the factory shuts down for the
months vacation. If not I won't receive them until Sept.
