As I am keen to start building my 98 FSR Pro, I am tackling the last major job (I hope!) - the rear shock.
I had thought about getting the unit - a Fox Vanilla TC rebuilt but the prices are somewhat scary so I thought about a good used version from Fleabay.
I had thought that these bikes all used a 165mm eye to eye shock but I have just measured mine at 155mm.
This begs the questions is this correct or in the past has someone slid a different unit in? Will a 165mm fit?
As is to be expected there is play in the bushes - at what point will new spacers be required - and where other than BETD?
Many thanks
