ZX636 Shock swap on a Curvy (k1)
 

Hi folks

Have recently upgraded my forks by replacing the orig springs with some Maxton ones and ohhh my god what a difference, now for the rear end!

I managed to get hold of a zx636 b1h shock (less than £15 inc p&p on ebay!!!) but am now stuck! Before i purchased it i found a cracking guide on here for the fitting side but now no matter what i search i dont seem to be able to find one

If someone could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated!

Cheers
Irksy :D

I cant help with the guide but I would be interested to see how you do this :-)

A step by step guide with photos of how you did it would be verrrry helpful ;-).... Once you find the guide that is ;-)

If you need any help give us a PM and I should be able to answer any questions.

What shape is the res? Is it exactly the same as the one on the guide?

Re: ZX636 Shock swap on a Curvy (k1)
 

Seems to be the same so hopefully will go on without any issues!

Lol have also just decided to fit the homemade undertray and tailtidy at the same time, should make for an interesting afternoon!
