vt cycles sells one like that for half the price, but all you need is a basic 5 way adjustable.

seems to me it would work.
Looks cool too. But man that cost allot.

My question is are you doing it to make the ride better? or are you just doing it for the fact of doing it? Cuz vtcycles do carry theses...

They have 5 settings so you can adjust it.

Your call, i mean, its your money and your bike.

No No No
that will not work.

Look at the ends on it. Then compare to the picture i posted.
There is no way you would be able to mount it on the bottom with out making some sort of bracket.

I have a lower mount adaptor that will make that shock fit but you will never find this part!

I have 2 welders and a roll of duct tape, i can make anything I want.
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.

using all my pics huh lol, thats my shock in the pic btw and I didn't get it from VT since they werent stocking it when I talked to them.

Overall I'm pretty pleased with the Daytona Showa shock, have it on the softest setting and its still plenty firm and stiffer over stock, just what I was going for.
projects galore :nerd:

yeah, the only other pictures of that shock i could find was on hawaii forums, and they all had peoples feet in them. :lol:
I love how the people on there never realize when taking a downward picture there feet will appear in the picture.

but yeah, i thought they had them. If not i guess he can find them in other places.
