Title: Yamaha fz1 shock upgrade
Post by: Roymac on 24 December 2018, 04:54:41 pm

Just picked up a 2008 fz1 and the rear shock is very soft. What other shock will bolt straight on with out any mods. Have seen people using r1, r6 and bmw shocks. Which is the best and easy to fit

Not sure about the fz8. Most of these mods are for the 01-05 FZS 1000.

Whoops, can’t read. I bought a used shock and Satan type adaptor from the states off the FZ owners forum. Sold it on the bike though. Only seen one other for sale on eBay, typically just after I bought mine. I do have an brand new set of rearsets for the bike if you interested. I sold the bike before I fitted these.
