This article is 2 years old at this point, so it might be old news, but it's the first time I've seen it.

Considering how bad our rear shocks are, and how expensive replacements are I'm always intrigued when I see push shocks on Buells since you can buy those shocks for $20 on ebay all day long. I know there's the company who made a setup for tubers that looked nice but was a bit elaborate. This one is so simple that it makes it seem a little silly that we ended up with the pull shocks when one simple linkage lets you use a normal push shock instead. It's a custom frame and swingarm, so not really anything that could be made to work on a normal Buell, but still a neat idea.
