GT500 shocks

Post by rbond »

The shocks I got from parts-n-more are too stiff and too long. Does anyone know where I can get some 12" long shocks to fit?

Hagon shocks from England, Progressives from the US, or Ikons from Auz, all make very good shocks, and are all available with the right spring rates, and in 12 inch lengths. I've tried them all at one point or another, and they are a vast improvement from stock, or new inexpensive, Taiwanese replicas. You basically get what you pay for. Cheers, and good luck.

Look up Dave Quinn for Hagon's, he'll set them up for your bike and weight.
