Help me identify this shock....

[unit74]

This is supposed to be an 02 GSXR 1k shock, but I tried to install on my 03 SVS today and there is no friggin way the reserviour is going to come close to fitting. It's soo long that the subframe is in the way!

If you have any idea what this is, let me know.

tried to find something but nothing really close come up, but the one which looked all most the same was of a cbr600 i think

Looks like maybe a honda shock...just guessing by the showa though. And red spring.

Might be for a Honda VFR...looks at least similar to the one I sold about a year ago.

Looks like it comes off a CBR600RR to me.

they may have had the shock in a gsxr, but it may have come from a honda..showa does make shocks for qute few bikes, but this does look honda to me...

OK.....


I found a shock on eBay and won it. Its a 2004 gsxr 1k shock and the guy said it was bone stock, he is the original owner and wadded up the bike so he's parting.


I went on Adams SV650 page and compared pics and it looks identical so I should be good this time....



Anybody need a Honda shock? I'll ship it to you fo $32
