spring colour

Post by creed12r »

<br> No but the title is better now!<br> The spring colour for all standard exup shocks is black.<br> Replacement springs are readily available, yellow is usually "ohlins"<br> All this means is that the spring has been replaced, it could have been painted, but the quality looks good so it would be far cheaper to replace a spring than have it professionally painted.<br> It does not necessarily mean that the shock has been stripped and rebuilt, only that the spring has been replaced.<br> chris <p></p><i></i>

Looking at the pic, in the upper right hand corner is the remote resv. Looks stock, but may not be, but looking at the top of the spring there is no adj. there. I could have sworn that the stock shock on my 94 had an adj. there. Don, you still have yours... ? <p><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;">There are some who call me........Tim?</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:white;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;">Top Speed = Mach 0.197 or so... </span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> <br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;">1994 FZR 1000</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> <!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> </p><i></i>

shock

Post by creed12r »

<br> No thats a stock shock 89-92, the only adjustment being preload and rebound adjustment at the bottom.<br> Ohlins foxeye models 92 on may have more adjustments <br> chris <p></p><i></i>

Chris is correct. On the 94 stock shock all the adjustments (preload and damping) are at the bottom. The reservoir is mounted to the right side of the shock.<br>Don <p></p><i></i>
