Hi everyone
New to the forum. I ride (or did till yesterday) a CBR1000f-R 1994. Just got Helga back on the road yesterday when the rear shock gave out. Pre-load casing broke and oil from damper Not a happy chappy at the moment as I have scarce resources to replace it. Would be gratefull if anyone has a second hand one they wish to part with. Lots of info on here will get digging.
all the best
Rich

 

Welcome aboard! I'd check in the Hurricane section, ask around and belly up to the bar in the Saloon. The guys prolly have one or can tell you how to make one from a soup can

Yes they are that good

 

welcome in

 

Welcome to the CBR Forum Rich,

I'm a bit hurt at Kuroshio's soup can comment - we only ever use empty beer cans

Cheers, SB

 

Hi everyone
Thanks for the welcome. Not sure if older model shock will fit. had a look on Hagon's site and only quote one shock for models FK to FP so I assume an earlier shock say 1991 will fit. Can anyone confirm this?
Cheers
Rich

 

Yes should fit
but check out the pics and decide for yourself.

Take it from whence it comes, Bear - after all what do you expect from a guy who rides a Bloody Motorised Wheelbarrow (Made from recycled Messerschmit parts) LoL.

 

Well I said soup can since most of yall in the Saloon are on non solid foods. Too hard ro clean the dentures I guess.

Yeah you too Trout! Though you cause ya knock most off them out chewing on bark or whatever it is you do out in them woods

 

Keep up the trash talk there Kuro and solid foods will be the least of your problems.
Ever tried eating through a straw ? LoL

AND YOU'RE OFF TOPIC - ONLY ALLOWED IN THE SALOON !!
BACK IN YOUR KRAUSER PANNIER THERE.........................

Norfolk UK. Thanks for the link. Will take a look

all will fit Rich - I have 3 spares in my garage - one spanking new (NFS) & 2 used (FS)

BUT

It'd cost an arm and a leg to ship them over from the shores of Boon Island !

think we need some new Bouncers Pete
