hi all, ive just bought a yamaha r6 07model shock brand new and very cheap,was wondering has any1 fitted 1 to an nc30? i know their shorter is their any mods on jacking the back end up?

jacking the back end up does make a bike handle better apparently,i tried putting a cbr600rr shock into my nc24 and i couldnt make it fit, even with a fair bit of grinding!

renewing the oil in your old one would be a safe bet and getting a stiffer spring from demon tweeks

ah thanks but i know this shock wil fit,just wonderd if anybody had any ides how to jack the back end up.

Shorten the dog bone link, just check everything clears, that hole in the swingarm isn't huge.

You could try one of these http://www.projection-components.co.uk/ ... s-17-p.asp
There made to fit a FZR but kayla will probably modify it to fit the NC for you. What length is the R6 shock?

the r6 shock is 291 and the nc30 is 305,wil shortening the dog bones work?

Dont know, i think you'd run into clearence problems shortening the dog bone link enough to get the right height. You could get a spare one and experiment but doesnt changing the length of the link effect the spring rate etc?

i think your rite,getting that adaptor is better but a little pricey tho.thanks for the help

Thinking about what i just said and it doesnt really matter about the spring rate etc cos the R6 spring is going to be way too soft anyway.

I put an R6 shock on my KR1 and it was too soft - so I got it shortened, re-valved and re-sprung
