Only place I know of is Just Jap here in Syd & they don't do the repair in house, they go back to a middle man.

Might be worth giving them a call, see if they know of a reseller in Vic that can provide the same service.

Just Jap will probably not do anything.. g4 does not exist to them anymore.. As if they never sold 'em.. BC is the only things they will comment on now..

Well that is what others have experienced..
I just had to add it ......

they gave me a place to call.
K Sport.
They are looking at a replacement insert for me. It will probably be a D2 equivalent. Just waiting fro them to get back to me.

Update
Got the K-sport insert in on the weekend.
All good. It's great not to have that banging every time i hit a bump in the road.
The only difference was the stroke is 12mm shorter than the G4 unit. But that was actually a good thing because the bump stop now does it's job.To me it looks as if the G4's were to long in the stroke anyhow.
:D
