Yikes - buy a nice running shock and swap the whole thing. I'll be happy to send ya ... and unlike last time when there was a 100 days of waffling, I may actually send it in 1-2 days. How's $75 and shipping.
Cool.
Buddha.

Jhoffy - You wanted a 94-95 didn't ya.
I have had the 91-93 sitting round. Just not located the 94 yet - but if the 91-93 is fine Paypal me.
The 94-95 is wider coil and hence its stiffer and can be cranked out for massive preload without any risk of coil bind.
If this is fine make it ~3-4 bucks for shipping, I'll piggy back it into a slightly larger flat rate box along with the 89 clipon's+bars.

Cool.
Buddha.

OK you need a shaved linkage dont ya. I'll need your stock one back but I'll send you.
Gregos - I am assuming you dont cos you have run the gsxr one before. Your shock is boxed to go, but no linkage in the box. Waiting your confirmation.
Cool.

Maybe it did, maybe it didn't ... I aint saying nothing, I'm saying everything.
OK OK it didn't. Tommorow evening looks like - and that is if its not pouring rain then. WTF, I thought our global warming was gonna get us all out of this crappy ass cold weather.
Cool.

Haha no big deal... anyway I just picked this up.. http://treasure.craigslist.org/mcy/1034463764.html

4 bolt pattern to attach, what do I need? I've heard some things about a Buddah flange?

Ha ha 4 bolt - there aint no buddha flange in the world that fits that.
Buddha can core it for ya and set in a baffle for you ... and ok if you'd send me the can, and pay big $$ (like 50 bucks) I will nake a flange onto my exhaust weld it up and send you, but I'll need your stock exhaust after ... prolly cost ya $$$ shipping. Or better yet, send me your exhaust with the can cut off. I'll make the flange on it and send it back. I cannot make a flange I can ship at this time.
BTW that exhaust can prolly is very restrictive, it has a catalytic converter etc etc PITA.
Cool.
Buddha.

I'm sure I can get something done locally. More restrictive than the GS??? Maybe I wont even have to rejet! I'm not looking for power, its just a way nicer looking can.

Put a pic of the end looking through the can sorta like a tunnel.
