Most likely Boge but the good news is that the rears can be replaced with any of the available brands. The whole thing is changed. The fonts are a different story.

Sure looks like a Boge. Rear shocks and front strut inserts are an easy install.

If you remove the crud...the name stamping on the body should suddenly *appear*, now, shouldn't it ? ..... Wil

Just checked the OEM Boges that came off my 88. The Boge logo is stamped on the UPPER shroud, but very near the bottom. Should be visible with the shock installed. It is unusual that it's not stamped on the main (lower) tube.

Ok, guess I was wrong. Either that or my strut was installed upsided down.
