Rear Suspension Dimensions
#1

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?

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!
