Fitting a CBR600 rear shock to an NC30

You need a spring compressor. Once you compress it enough, the bottom of the shock comes apart in two pieces.

how wierd, i was going to ask the same thing! ive aquired one from helping the bro rebuild and swap the engines over from his scrapper he bought friday.

i have a 1995 CBR600F3 Shock with the remote res, i gave my old shock away so dont have it to compare to, but need to know the widths of the mounts, and the lengths between the hole centres,

Anyone know where I can get a 850lb cbr600rr6 spring to fit my shock?

I bought a Faulkner one thinking it'd be a standard spring but the cbr one is tapered down to like 2 inch at the bottom but only noticed when taking it off. My spring is like a dick in a shirt sleeve.

Rang around a bit and couldn't find a non STD tapered spring so I'm fitting my 2.25 ID 800lb spring with a nice ally collar I've had machined up. New 7inch 800lb spring cost 30 quid from faulkner and my dads mate knocked the ring up for peanuts.

Will post more pics when I'm doing it. Also fitted uprated thinner r6 battery.

Spring is 7mm shorter than standard so o had the ring machined 7 mm thick

also has a step to seat the spring

Theres no reason for it not to work :) there's a link on this thread somewhere about some guy who did the same thing, doesn't look as beefy as my collar though. Can always ask the bloke if he will make another.
