I was looking at those shocks too. I have a 94 KZ1000 P and either my shocks are totally dead, or cause they are cop bike shocks they are sprung heavy. The back might as well be a hard tail!! I spripped my bike way down, removing alot of weight, so that also might be why they dont work. Forks move well tho.
ANYWAY, my question is this. They only seem to come in 320mm shocks. I think the cop shocks are somethin like 350? Should I get them, and make a small adapter so they would fit my bike? What do you think?

you wont know the importance of rear brakes until you need them to settle your bike in a panic situation. :ohmy: Its funny how the chopper guys have the opposite mentality when they remove their front brakes :blink:
