I had layed claim to it ealier but, I found another one that I "Buy Now"ed for 30 bucks.  Probably could have just bid and got it for much less, but I am sick of riding my bike with the stock rear after I installed the progressive spings.

GO FOR IT.

Thanks! I saw you had one from a 1000 or 1100 Kat shock but didnt search too hard  :)

Thanks

The one I bought was reported to have come from a 96' Katana 600.  I read on Pablo's web site that the 1000 or 1100 was not a good choice unless your really big.


The one you want to bid on is my earlier choice, the guy said it came off his bike with 10,000 miles on it and he also said it was still in good shape.

Good luck!
Paul

I am a lightweight so I need the 600/750 one otherwise it would be like a pogo stick bouncing on the rear!

Katana 750 shock...Ha Ha Ha...That is the last thing that is. Its a Long clevise 600 type shock that probably came off a mid 80's GS 700E or some like that. I had a bundle of these last year and I could not give them away at $20 each.
I shouldv'e put it on ebay...made 3 times the money...
Cool.
Srinath.

Oh well guess I am glad I didnt get it then. I will keep looking around for one. Wanted to put it on the same time I did my new rear wheel and tire.
