Ive put mine in the same place as Zul_cbr but have used two thick tie-wraps instead of jubilee clips to hold it to the exhaust hanger

Much the same here i took off the rear pegs as the mrs would never take a pillion anyway and 2 big strong tie wraps onto the frame where peg was exhaust side. When you take off the rider seat you can just get to the adjuster screw with a thin long screwdriver so not too much hassle if any adjustment required.

Hiya Zul,

Oh right, yes - of course. Great place for the remote reseviour!...and a good looking bike as well you have there!

The hose looks really long though. did you have it especially made up for you?

How long should I order for it as well??


Hope you can advise
Cheers
Martin

Hi Martin!

Thanks for your compliment.

Actually it's a standard Showa rear shock for CBR600 (don't know which 600 series/model yet) and not a specially-made shock. It has the same hole-to-hole distance with the stock NC29 shock. Maybe GF could explain more ?

Hi zul_cbr

Is that a cbr6 shock ?

Was thinking about putting one on my RRR, can see why youve fitted there but yeah loose rear pillion footrests, think if i was gonna go for that i'd try and fit inside subframe.

Looks good mounted outside but lets face it, its not something you adjust everyday so could well be hidden.
