KZ750 Spectre Rear Shocks

It is definitely time for an upgrade on shocks.. considering that the ones currently there are the original factory shocks.

The problem I'm coming to is I don't know what weight spring to order.

From everything I have read it takes into account rider size, bike weight and riding style.

Just in case it helps

I'm 300 lbs, bike is roughly 600 lbs and I tend to do a lot of cruising, possibly considered a little aggressive in the cornering.

Any help is greatly appreciated, Thanks in advance

Talk to the people at race tech. Their website has a fork spring calculator. It's entirely possible they have a shock spring calculator as well. Good luck. Paul
Don't be ridiculous! It's only a flesh wound!

Contact Dave Quinn regarding Hagon shocks. He set up a pair for me using my weight, riding style, bike specs, accessories, etc. and after 6 years they still look and work great! Ed
