Morning everyone,
I'm wanting to replace the rear shock on my 1991 ZX7 but even after many hours of reading other posts I'm still not sure which way to go.
I actually missed a used Ohlins unit on EBay last week listed at $399, rather silly of me.
Usage will be track only & I'm a biggish guy at 235lbs, options:
Replace with one from a newer ZX7
Replace with one from ZX10 - but what year will fit etc.
Find a used Ohlins or similar unit - anyone got one for sale?
Have current shock rebuilt (unlikley)
I cant afford a new Ohlins/Nitron etc but would go for a used unit.
I also dont mind changing the linkage or drilling out the linkage but dont want to be modding the battery box like some have.
Any help greatly appreciated folks,
Smudger
