I'm working on a project and I was wondering if anyone knows of modern rear shocks available for the Ace Super Rat? any other ideas welcome.

There are a number of modern shocks that you can use of a Super Rat. It all depends on what the bike is going to be used for and what you are willing to spend. It also depends on if you want the shocks to look like the originals (for a restoration) or if you don't mind a newer look.
So, let us know how you plan to use the bike, your planned budget and anything else that could effect your choice (such as rider weight, rider experience, etc.)

The plan is, for now, good travel and a modern design, my weight is about 175, although multiple riders will be riding it, but not as much as I would be. For now I would like to keep it not to expensive but later down the road I do want to put some ohlins on it. it will mainly be for the dirt too.

Progressive. Bolt and go. Excellent shocks.
