Rear Shocks - need to find (AUS/NZ)

Looking for some replacement shocks as the second bike I bought has a shock that's got traces of oil that's leaked down it (LHS)

I've tried to find some specs (Sachs ZF - 380mm eye to eye) and there are a heap of 380mm shocks (nitrogen) on Ebay, but would prefer a decent pair either new or off a wreck as I'm not sure the spring rates and travel would be appropriate.

Does anyone in Australia / New Zealand have these parts (even a wrecker)?

OEM part is by Sachs9 Part of ZF GmBH), should be possible to find in their catalogue through local distribution.

Stuart in Melbourne has a bike he's parting out - he probably still has the shocks as they rarely fail (compared to the rest of the bike)

Thanks Matt - could I get you to PM or email me his details?

I thought it was pretty strange that the shock was leaking, not sure of the size of the previous owner though - 5,000Klms and the rear tyre was also trashed.
