tried both shocks but both wallowed, tried all available settings but to no avail (why two you might ask ) I have the second one on my 600 complete with the 600 spring with this combination the 600 is fine. "I summise that the thou is undersprung" As soon as I have finished with repairing the recent accident damage on the 600 (Not suspension related) I am going to try my R6 shock on it
I don't know much about the Fazer thous but I think with an original 600 shock, the only way you'd get it working better than a quality aftermarket one is if you spend more on it than the price of an aftermarket one. I've never had much trouble with wallowing, perhaps due to my weight, but I reckon a custom made shock like the Wilbers might sort that out on your big Fazer.
R6 shock on the 600 sounds interesting - do you know if it's a straight fit?
