Hi All, The rear shock on my nc29 is shot and i have one for an r1 spare. Has anyone on here fitted one to a 29 befoe, ive looked at the old posts and all i can find is cbr600.
The r1 shock gose in but is 14mm slimmer on the bottom mounting than the 29 one and ill need to cut a 5mm deep slot in the linkage.
Now my question is how much will it weaken said linkage (as this seems to be common on fitting cbr600 shock) and can i get away with having spacers made to make up the differance in shock bottoms ?

Any help on this would be great

Thanks marc

Hi marc. Search posts by cajun im sure he done this. I did buy a shock but never fitted it. Some washers were required. Sorry cant link myself as im on the mobilr and its a pain searching the site with it.

Thanks durka but i cannot find cajun's post's about r1 shock but i've had a better measure up today and it looks easyer than i first thought so ill have a go at making spacers and fitting shock tomorrow.

Sorry just found the post and it was a r6 shock. Still might help though.
