Default '89 rear jack up kit needed

does anyone know if a jack up kit exists for the early 600f's or if a later model kit will fit?

There are aftermarket rear shocks that can be customized to your weight. I have always just adjusted the preload...
How much are you trying to raise the rear of the bike? My worn out OEM shock was shot and when I replaced it with an OEM style it restored my rear ride height to normal.

just looking for a 30mm lift, i'm going to measure the height tonight & compare it against the proper specs to see if it's sagged

quick bump for this, anyone have any ideas?

checked my shock & it's all good, about 6 months old showa unit, ride height it spot on according to specs, but I want to raise it about 30mm for looks more than anything as I've done a complete 600rr5 conversion & it doesn't look quite right where it sits now.

is there another unit that will fit & lift it slightly.

I'm not looking to buy a new custom unit as I'm broke & it sort of defeats my cheap build philosophy
