89 Fzr1000 Rear Shock Upgrade

Post by glenstrachan »

Just wondering if anyone knows of a later model rear shock that fits straight to 89 fzr1000 in with compression and rebound adjustments.
Have been told that zx10 and 12r fits but little mods? and a sv1000,. any other options etc and how hard to fit. thanks

ZX12R in my son's 1000RU - bottom fitting on original is 10mm but ZX12R is 12mm - just drill out and fit suitable length high tensile bolt. Also need to shim top and/or bottom sleeves with washers. Simples.
