Hi all me again, noticed one of my rear shockies is leaking oil, age I guess, anyone know of a reasonably priced replacement shockie ?, some that aren't priced like they are made from gold ?, any off some other bike with the same fitting and length ?? according to the parts manual the part number is 45014-1028 ?, think that's right, cheers Pete.

Just measured them, they are 14 inches center to center of mounting bolts, suppose any big bike shocks will fit ?? (so long as they ain't Harley :-))

Hagon in the UK are a reputable shock absorber manufacturer, I had a pair of their shocks on my 13 some years back, very good quality for not a bad price :) www.hagon-shocks.co.uk/

Hi

It's Hagon shocks I've got on both my bikes. No complaints about them at all. If the bushes fail/wear out Hagon can send you replacements also.

Read the FAQ's here and somewhere it does mention using shockies off a Kawasaki "Meanstreak", anyone know if they would fit ok on the mounting bolts ??

If the shocks are the same length then your only issue is the bushes. If the bushes in the Meanstreak forks are the wrong diameter for the mounting bolts then you can always buy new bushes from CMSNL.COM
