How much cheaper is bolting in a zx10 shock than buying a hagon / hyperpro shock??

Considering the shock you could be buying might be due a rebuild, may be worth considering a slightly more expensive but surer alternative??

Just speculation from my part....

most zx10's from 2006 dont have high miliage and are in mint condition neer enough up to the point they are written off lol so wont need a rebuild

they are far cheaper to buy than aftermarkets which are rare for a zx7 at the best of times a few people off of a zx7r forum have done the mod the only modifacation you need to do to fit it is to drill the linkage in the bike to 12mm apparently the mod works a treet as the 10r shock is much better than standard most people have used it inconjunction with standard forks  BEERZ

it works much better with the 10 swinger and wheel as it saves a ton of weight and a 10 front end to finish off or rsv mille front and rear ends look good and save weight oz rims are sweet and both improve handling too as thats my next mod after i get my gixxer thou engine fitted  :evil: i just need to save some more cash and get all the bits ready before i decide what bodywork to fit as i sold mine when my engine died  ROL:
