Rear Suspension Dimensions - Aussieflyer - 12-06-2017

I'm shopping around for new rear suspension and need to know the inside diameter of the upper and lower mounting lugs ... does anyone know the dimensions?

Yes you're right, I could just go out to the garage and remove a shock to measure it but hey this is what forums are for ... yes?

How are the ribs ?

Dunno mate, but the upper bolt has a 6mm thread diameter and the lower an 8mm thread diameter.

Hey mate the ribs and lung have mended nicely thanks - almost back to normal. I haven't ridden the bicycle again but am back on the motorbike with a track day this Sunday. Biker

Thanks Ptero, maybe I just gotta get off my backside and take it off to have a look.

Was great seeing you and Cormanus last month. I hope the Tasmanian's treated you well and the ride home was enjoyable. I tip my hat you boys - so many miles on the CB, well done!

should anyone else be shopping for rear suspension options ... the upper lug, or is called a pin, is 14mm and lower lug is 16mm.
