Rear shock swap on FZR100

Post by Safo »

What are the compatible rear shocks that will work with minimal fuss? There is a guy oartung out 2008 gsxr1000, wondering if this would fit my 1990 FZR.

Its not just about the fittings (which will probably be different) its about the weight and geometrics as well. All of my bikes have Hagon shocks, they are hand made in the UK for your weight, pillion weight and bike setup, they can range from about £250 to £300 which isnt bad for a bespoke made monoshock.
