Title: R6 rear shock
Post by: Steel on February 07, 2012, 12:11:13 PM
The wiki says something about linkage being a part of this system or needing extra spacers. Can anyone who has done this upgrade tell me if either of the parts pictured are what I'm looking for?

You need the shock,the bolt in the clevis,and the spacer that is inside the link that the clevis is bolted to.

Ooo, thanks for calling out the full nice clean pic.

I've recently discovered the wonders of internal page links on the wiki, so I'm having an update fest. This gave me an excuse to update  http://wiki.gstwins.com/index.php?n=Upgrades.RearShock    :)
