Yooo

Getting myself an SRAD shock in the next week or so and from what I understand they require a bit of modification/bodging to fit to a curvy... now normally I'd give this sort of thing a go myself if it was a straight swap but the thought of buggering about with the battery holder etc does concern me a bit as I'm guaranteed to balls it up :D Any of you who would be willing to fit it for me for a few quid? I can bring bike to you or whatever (yes i know, petrol :O ), and I'm told I make a decent cup of tea ;)

Cheers! :cheers:

I'm sure Spannerman will fit it for you for a very reasonable fee.

Thought zx6 and zx10 shocks were the must have bling on the curvy? Is it off an srad 600? make sure you use the correct bolts with the shock. There's a guide on here somewhere mate, doesn't look too difficult, give it a shot yourself.

You heard about my new wheels?!?! Edit: Ahh yeah. Just saw you posted in the other thread.

Back on topic. I already have GSX-R suspension. :D

They are, but couldn't complain about this one for a grand total of 15-20 quid. As far as I'm aware its off a '99 srad 750, i'm a bit under 12 stone so weight wise it's about right.

Throw in some tinnies and I'll do it for you!;)
I'm sure that can be arranged! :batman:
