Dont forget that the wheel has a little more travel than the shock because it is farther out from the pivot point.

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationThe repro shocks I bought from Z1E are junk. I bought them because I like the red reflector and knew they were not that good in 75. I'm planning on some progressive shocks and put the cover on them. I should have bought the good ones and been done with it.

Bought for my 81 kz650sr a pair of Hagon 13.3" (33cm) from dimecitycycles because on that time they had free shipping to Argentina. You can check on Google for other suppliers, Z1E is another one.
Cheers, Charlie.

Kz shocks are 335 to 360mm. I always go for 365mm, sharpens the steering a touch and I prefer the higher rear end look.
I hate it when people reposition the shock top mounts instead of using longer ones.
Hagon UK are pretty good, the Nitro piggy backs are really nice.
