Stupid questions are the ones that don't get asked.

There's a K5/6 shock on fleabay just now pretty cheap, do you reckon it'll be too stiff? The K3/4's are all around the £80 mark just now...

Thanks for the links both of you btw!!

If you put it in from right you can't get the c**t out again without taking exhaust off
