K75 Suspension
« on: September 16, 2017, 10:42:03 AM »
Hi - Re. 1993 K75 RT - Can anyone advise on the length of the rear shock absorber (from centres of mounting bolts) when fully extended? Mine (Hagon) is 330mm - I'm not sure if that is standard or shortened.  Also my front for stanchions  project 10mm above the top yoke. Is that standard or should they be flush? Thanks for any help..

Standard length was 350mm on my 75s, Hagon did a shorter shock. Standard setting for the fork tubes was level with the top of the trees, you can drop them about 1/2" without any notable handling changes.
