i must have been away for too long as i think thats an improvement to the design!
one scoot i had, that mount was split in half, i didnt even realise that there was nothing holding the top of the shock to the chassis! just the weight of me and my girlfriend holding it place.
until i smelled burning,, the tyre was rubbing on the shock
that bodge would have stopped that happening in the first place.
not bad!!
hahahaha
