I wouldn't believe that person any more, the RWU RGV fork is just a plain damper rod fork. USD would be the same principal but not the same internals.

The best set of 250 forks are the Aprilia RS250 Mk2 Showa's :wink:

Eeek... At least he was willing to negotiate, that's crazy for him to do that without so much as a phone call. In the UK if the dealer does work or replaces parts that you didnt sanction you can have them for free. Most poeple accept a small variance on a quite, like you did, but more than double is mental.
