Replacement shock 2008 FZ1 Fazer
« on: 15 December 2012, 10:41:32 am »
I have 28000 miles and a very bouncy/sloppy shock on my 2008 Fazer    :faz   so am looking for a replacement rear shock.


Budget is not huge but any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks folks

Get it serviced if you are happy with it, re oil and gas, new seals about £85 to £150 depending where you go. There must be places in wales that do it do a search for motorcycle suspension servicing, or buy a low miles one from ebay.
