Curvy rear shock
After reading Binky's post about his rear shock, I fear that mine is foobared too!
Think it's probably wise to change it before the trackday at Cadwell. If anyone has a decent shock for a curvy (standard or upgraded) at a reasonable price :rolleyes: that you want rid of, let me know. Thanks all |
Re: Curvy rear shock
Have you tried ebay Paiste? Check out the cost of old SV shocks and compare to zx10/zx6 and gsxr shocks...
Maybe worth using this as an excuse to buy a newer better shock? |
Re: Curvy rear shock
Just so you are aware Paiste. GSXR shocks are too soft for a curvy. If you decide to upgrade the zx6/10 is the best one to go for.

Well there are only 3 that are stiffer which are the zx6, zx10, and then there is the Busa shock which is just silly.
You can't really go with any GSXR shock. I do believe they don't actually fit. The springs have a wider wind and causes clearance issues whilst riding. Basically the spring rubs against the swingarm as it moves up and down. |
Re: Curvy rear shock
Thanks for that.
I'm watching a couple of shocks on ebay at the mo. One is a ZX6R (G) shock, which I'm not sure of the age/ spring rating etc. The other is a ZX636 2005 shock which I think is listed in the above. I'm sure this has been answered a hundred times, but don't I have to buy different bolts to fit the shock too? |
