Post by: banner on August 11, 2006, 06:24:02 PM
Hey guys..

quick question for you all..when i'm changing the rear do i have to pull out the rear wheel or can i simply unbolt the gs shock and bolt in the katana 600 shock in?

no. but you either have to remove the dogbones (or pull them back out of the way) or if you have a CA bike you'll have to remove the carbon canister over the shock (as I had to).
