What are the specs for the Spree shock? I.E. length, bolt size, bolt mount width.

I had one of the sb50 shocks on my spree but it made the bike bounce like crazy every time i hit a bump. But the honda ruckus shock makes the spree ride really nice.

OH Boy this is my specialty. OK i have put a Honda CB750 shock on mine and it rocks i had to make a little mod to the airfilter and the mount on the bottom to make room. here is a pic of the mod
what do you think, i can jump off curbs and do dirt trails without it bottoming out.

its a 75 cb750 shock. just get one at any motorcycle junk yard that has the same connections. but yes the craftsman air filter is the easyest way to do it. you have to restrict the filter (its too good of a filter, i covered 3/4th of the filter with masking tape and that did the job. but you may need to play with it.
