....and by the way, this makes the rear tyre stick to the road like shurhit to a blanket.

got a model number? website application list isn't working and I'd be interested as to whether this would fit the thousand.

Pretty sure it fits the thou.

YC could confirm.

How heavy are you with your gear on?

[Nobbylad]

From what I have seen, SV1000 shock is 330mm, this is 335mm, however there is some adjustment on the bottom linkage if you wanted to get it bang on.

I've got my VFR in for a fukk work over, valve clearances, carb balance etc...

depending on how much I have left, I'll let you know if I can afford to have it off you.

Can anyone confirm if all the fixtures and fittings are the same or will modification be required?

[Nobbylad]

Should be bolt straight in.

Ok matey, got your PM and will be in touch this weekend. The VFR's due quite a bit of work so the labour charge will likely be high. It's all riding on that tbh, will reply to your PM when I know more.

Bump

Is this off a pointy or curvy? i.e. 650 lb or 500 lb spring rate? I'm interested in buying if it'll suit a 12ish stone rider on a K6.

Sorry, just seen the #525 in your first post.

PM sent.
