Just installed a used penske and its got a remote reservoir.
Hoping to hear what location is the best solution for where to mount the reservoir based on others experiences. Any descriptions or pics appreciated. I understand the NC30 had one as stock?
thanks

Re: NC35 - best mounting spot for penske shock remote reservoir
If the hose is long enough it would be convenient to mount it in the stock location.
Are you using the standard subframe? The stock res mount bolts to the r/h pillion peg bolts on the subframe.

Re: NC35 - best mounting spot for penske shock remote reservoir
the hose is plenty long enough. So on the NC30 it just mounts inboard of the passenger peg bracket hanging on the same bolts? that would work, except my hose it probably a bit long. I suppose I could rotate the shock around to the hose makes a half circle around the front of the shock to take up some of the extra length. that maybe the way intended anyway, but wasn't sure how muhc length I'd need.
