Rare Scottish Tree Badger Posted May 11, 2005 Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 My replacement standard used rear shock arrived today. It has a yellow spring. ... Is there any significance to this, as my 2001 bike has a white spring? Another thing that's different is that the adjuster for compression is metal, whereas the one on my bike is a black plastic adjuster. Rare.

locogato11283 Posted May 13, 2005 Report Share Posted May 13, 2005 if you dont like the spring color just have it PCed. otherwise they are all the same i believe, just different colors for different years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought it on eBay as 'Like New' and it's worse than the one I already have! Rebound (bottom adjuster): My one has 7 clicks from tight (at the top) before it just spins freely all the way to the bottom. ... This one only has 5 clicks before it does the same. They're supposed to have 20 clicks from tight at the top, to tight at the bottom. Is that right? Rare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frocashmoney24 Posted May 14, 2005 Report Share Posted May 14, 2005 yea thats right, sounds like you got ripped, maybe between the 2 shocks you can rebuild one stocker, or send yours out to elka or works or a shock company and get it made for your weight.

So I guess I will try to make one good one out of the two. ... And I'll check out having one of them sent out for a rebuild. Anyone know of anywhere in the UK that does shock rebuilding? Rare.
