ZX10R shock
 

Simple questrion will a 04/05 ZX10-R shock fir onto my K3 pointy with no adjustments being needed to the bike?

If so is there anyone (competent) out there willing to help me fit it for the cost of a crate of beer and an afternoon of my company??:rolleyes:

Re: ZX10R shock
 

I have one on my curvy & it works well. which means it's probably too long & too hard (fnar fnar) for a pointy

Yep, I think you want a GSXR one for the pointy :)

Re: ZX10R shock
 

so the ZX10 one will fit then? i mean in tearms of bolt sizes etc and the mounting positions.?

how does the spring lengt fit, as surley that can be changed under pre load?

I ask as there is a decent ZX-10R shock goig on ebay. but i am opent to sugestions of shocks that people know 100% fit straight in with no hassle. i dont have to worry about the tool holding box that hangs down as its o K3 so Suzuki placed it in a proper place.

Re: ZX10R shock
 

shock length, not spring length

Re: ZX10R shock
 

oh got you. so the 10R is 8mm to long? so i assume it wont fit?

what shocks have people put in their pointys then? (from other bikes)

Re: ZX10R shock
 

it probably will, but it'll jack you back end up by 1-2", which may (or probably won't) be what you want

see blue_sv650s' post above. people generally put gixxer shocks in pointies

Re: ZX10R shock
 

will this do?

Re: ZX10R shock
 

length & stiffness match. do you want a 5 year old shock though? do you believe that an '02 gsxr1000 had done 4,000 miles?

if the milage is genuine it would bea good replacement no??
