Hi adidasguy,
How are you doing?  :)
So, why are you selling this shock?
Did you not like it?
Just curious.
I had a Fox shock on my 1984 Yamaha RZ350 and found that it lost it's gas charge every season. That was a drag.
Was that a problem with this shock?
Best wishes,
Trwhouse

I bought it last year and never put it on.
Since I'm happy with the stock rear shock for my weight and riding around the city (changed front springs to .85 though) I see no reason to change the rear.

Never used it. Been in the drawer for 9 months. Bought from a bike breaker that took it off of a gs500.

Got to sell off the hoard of parts to finance the remodeling /bike-cave. Old stuff in worse shape than thought - had to replace all of roof, etc. so should have bulldozed it and started over - now it has become a money pit. Too much done to tear down and start over.
