joined up a bit ago for info for my mates bike I used to visit many moons ago when I had a zxr but times have changed and big twins are the future
![:smt003](./images/smilies/003.gif)
Any way I was out with my mate following him on his zxr he is a new rider and this was his first ride I noticed his back end looked a bit bouncy
when we stop and I had a look its bouncing around like a pogo stick! so its safe to say his rear shock is well shafted!!
I am looking to replace it for him and have done a bit of reading but cant really find the answers
what shocks fit? I know the zx6r one does I have seen one off a 06 plate that looks like it could be worth the punt
also heard gsxr shocks fit
does anyone know a decent shock with similar length to stock with a good spring rate that will work fine for a short arsed new rider just for road riding he wont be going like a mad man just yet so wont see a great improvement of an expensive one although anything is better then the one he has!
also when fitting what needs to be altered? I have heard the battery box needs adjusting is this by a lot he has a custom undertray with some sort of race tail unit so adjusting isnt too much of a problem really
anything else I need to know?
thanks all in advance Stu
