Quote:I know, I've read about some of your sterling research already
But thinking of another shock (sitting in front of me), which was removed from my previous bike. Suppose I can sell the shock on if it can't be adapted to fit, but having had it serviced & rebuilt a couple of months ago, it felt great & I'm reluctant to part with it :unsure2:
If it's a common make then things like the end clevis can be exchanged for a longer/shorter one. If it's Ohlins, YSS, Niton or so on, then they manufacture a single shock body and just fit different end eyes/clevises to the body and strut to suit different bikes . I would check the shock manufacturers catalogue, there might be a bolt on solution
