your an idiot. 1500 is a decent price for it. you rarely see them cheaper, and when you do they are beat ass junk.
so since he UPGRADED to a z400 SUZUKI rear shock it’s junk? carbs are basically all the same don’t matter what they are off of. and the honda throttle, so what. it probably works better. i bet if he ground off where it said honda and painted it, you would never know the difference.
