Title: SOLD: Works Performance Short Shock For K1100 LT or K1100RS
Post by: vitamink on July 14, 2012, 10:27:45 AM

$375
Removed last spring from a K1100LT for a rebuild at Protech Suspension in Halifax, NS (at a cost of $125)
When removing it we discovered that it was the short version which isn't required by the 6' owner.
Decided to buy a new regular length Works Performance shock so now this short one is now available for sale, never having been installed after the rebuild.
Eye to eye is approximately 14 1/2"

I recently purchased a K75 C with this shock on it but the seller did not have the owner's material that may have come with the shock.  Do you have these instructions?  If so, would you share them with me?

Thanks frankenduck for providing the info...I'm in Asheville, NC right now and 2,000 miles away from the home and the manual!

I did not think a rear shock from a 1100 would fit on a K75.

Yup - your right... apparently it doesn't fit the K75!  This shock is from my Honey's K1100LT but he's still a wee bit of a Luddite  :dunno2: and doesn't have too much to do with the Internet!
We asked the shop that rebuilt it and they confirmed that it wasn't compatible ...too bad as I needed a rear shock and need a short version.
When we ordered a rear short shock for my K75 from Works they re-confirmed the K1100 shock isn't compatible with a K75!
