That isnt an akit shock.  It looks like one of the stock body shocks that PC modified. PC used those while they were waiting for the billet 2-piece shocks that they use now.

I’m all good with whatever it’s called.

Pro circuit works suspension but it is DLC coated not the gold finish as they picture on the shaft.

I should have it to tune for a race this weekend.

Shock landed and I put my “fat guy” 6.3 spring on it.

I will have some good practice to dial it in before gate drops Sunday

thanks to Factory Dick.

he got this thing across the country in 3 days.

 

I will be selling my SR shock also.

what were you running for settings on the old SR shock? mine is great until the end of the day when there is a lot of chop out of corners up to Jumps. Also a heavier guy on a 6.0 spring.

Pretty much run the Keefer settings.

Biggest problem with the bike is me and getting back into race shape.

I was able to get the brake lines put on.

a few ti bolts may land this weekend.

Had a chance to try the Luxons 21.5 mm

Definitely helped my cornering.

pulled the plus 10mm risers off when I got home and want to try out without them and also some plus 4mm risers.IMG 5354 I’m tall at 6’4” I thing I can get more weight on the front end and slide forward with the bars down a bit.
