Rear shock

Post by hondahaha »

Riding too and from the mot I noticed the rear of my NC29 was a bit solid and when I looked at the microfiche on here and searched for a replacement on-line I noticed that they are shown without a remote reservoir...but mine has a reservoir??
Is that correct or another bodge??
Thanks.

The early nc29 has a red remote res shock the later has a black shock without but it could be that it has a non std shock fitted too

Originals are cheap, but they'll be 20yrs old at least and well past their sell by date. Have you tried adjusting the one you have?

I've got hold of an original,even if it's creamed I can get it serviced,I'd rather opt for std,cheers.
