Rear Shock Upgrades - What fits?

Post by motorbikeshopUKcouk »

ZXR400H1
I know the 3-way GSXR600/750/1000 K1,K2,K3 slots straight in, anything else? Anyother later Kawasaki shocks?

ZXR400H2
?

ZXR400L1-9
?

Would be useful if someone could pin this info, like you have done with the brake upgrade page?

I had an older ZX6R rear shock in my L model frame. Fitted with no mods and was adjustable whereas the standard wasn't.

the gsxr one does not slot straight in, requires a small amount of modification. bottom hole needs drilled out to accommodate the zxr bolt and top needs either washers welded onto the zxr mount or the spacer carefully drilled as not to damage the bush, and the edges filed down to fit inside. ran one on my racebike this year and its a big improvement over standard, still found it a bit of a compromise for race use though. oh yeah, youll have to modify your rear subframe too as the shock fouls the brace bar on the underside
