The problem with Ikon Norton shocks such as "basix, dial a ride and albions" is that they only have 2" of travel. So I contacted the company and they set me up with a pair of 13" Flat trackers that have 3" travel. They came provided with custom valving and 702 springs (they said the standard flat tracker valving is too weak for the street). They also have 701 springs but they are supposed to be too wimpy for a street Norton. They are rebuildable and revalveable. The mounts are 20mm wide and have to be narrowed to 19mm by milling machine but other than that, everything should be good.
Here's the specs if you want to DIY but remember the mounts are too wide and need to be narrowed on a milling machine:
Length: 13"
Travel: 2.99"
Re-valve to .014" rebound damping
Black springs, code 702 tri-rated 18/25/33 newtons/mm for 180lbs rider
Black damper bodies
Bushed/sleeved for 3/8" dia. mounting bolts upper & lower
Fully re-valvable/re-buidable design
MSRP $ 350/pr + shipping
