Hi Craig, I am interested in ordering a set of Ohlins shocks for a 1974 CR250 mag. What details do you need from me and how long before they would be ready to ship? Also what is the current price?, regards, Paul , Sydney Australia

Hi Paul, thanks for checking, i stock the Classic Ohlins in the standard built lengths and i select the spring for application
length - 13.4"
stroke - 4.1"
this configuration is used on many mag 250s
however -
stock Mag 250 shock is 11.9" this standard Ohlins Classic is 13.4"
stock Mag 250 shock travel is 3.7 this Ohlins is 4+
so naturally a 250 Mag bike with 13.4 Ohlins Classics sits higher at rear, chain may rub top of swing arm, and actual rear wheel travel is 6"+, this is because of the moved up position of the shock mount and longer Mag 250 swing arm.
so
Classic Ohlins shock can be built to custom order (and i do this regularly for Mag 250s and others)
length - 316mm/12.4in
stroke - 92mm
rear wheel travel actual - 5.3", tech inspec observed - 4"
Custom build pair - $960 in 2013

note: this need for perfect length/travel is the reason for my Ohlins shop to build Classics to spec, see info at page bottom.

Items to consider when buying Ohlins above shocks-
1) Buy your shocks from somone who actually knows the business so you can follow up with questions and tech to make your bike the best.
2) Purchase above shock set with 8mm spacers and drill the 8mm out to 3/8" if you want this 3/8"fit. Otherwise you will be modifying your bike to fit 10mm (and buying new bolts and nuts) or putting 3/8" bolts in a 10mm bore. You may be already 10mm , no problem, but stock period Girlings (1965-1976)are 3/8" mount bolts.
3) All of the above sets come with the short end eyes which work pretty well with many bikes
