Hi Guys, I am after some info regarding a 1985 Honda CR250. The rear shock fitted to this bike is not 1985 and I am trying to identify it. There is HO441 stamped on the top mount block. It also has a black wheel at the bottom for adjusting the preload/rebound. What is the length between the fixing mounts that the correct shock should be. Any help you can offer will be very much appreciated.

Ok, thank you, was the 88 a piggy back or remote reservoir,

Thank you, that rules out the 88 then as this is remote.
I have just purchased this bike so how do I know if it is actually a Honda shock, are Suzuki, Kawasaki or Yamaha very different ?

Thank you underground, I think you are right track regarding an XR shock.
Just got to try and identify the year now.

Has anyone out there in the UK got a 1985 Honda CR250 rear shock for sale ?
