Hey people: KONI is only involved in automotive racing applications now and will barely admit they ever made motorcycle shocks according to people I've talked to. Their headquarters is in Hebron, KY and just for good measure, here is a link to them.

KONI motorcycle shocks division was bought by IKON Suspension in Australia a few years ago and they still make all the old, classic designs. Geoff is the man there...he has answered all my emails and has tried to answer all my questions, but still no specific instructions! They offer direct ordering for US customers. IKON has some good info on their site if you poke around a bit. Here is their link.

MG Cycle, in Albany, WI carries the KONI/IKON seal/rebuild kits for the 7610 series shocks (dial a rides) and sells them for $19.95. These kits do not come with any instructions! These guys specialize in parts for Moto Guzzi. Here is their link.

FYI: IKON sells springs for most applications. I found some NOS/OEM Koni's on eBay for cheap that will work...they are not progressive wound springs but oh well. all 7610's had progressive wound springs originally I think, but I'm not worried about historical accuracy with my GPz!
Hope this answers your questions...wish I could get answers to mine (specific instructions/exploded view).
