I've got a Hagon shock on my FJ1200 and it really transformed the handling (although the original shock had 50k miles on it when I changed it).


Have you thought about Kebab 19's R6 shock conversion for the Fazer - Google reports from members I think and cheaper than either of the shocks you've priced.

I have thought about the R6 conversion but I understand that a lot of the R6 shocks that are advertised on FleaBay are not correct for the application (something to do with the rebound adjusters whether they are separate or piggyback adjusters)
I am led to believe that the piggyback adjuster shock is the correct one but they are becoming as rare as rocking horse shit.
The other thing that influences my decisions about the Niton or Hagon is that I am a lazy bastard with very limited spanner skill, knowledge, patience and I know nothing about dog bones, spacers or shims, in fact I don't even like dogs, fucking things jumping up at you with their claws down your new leathers, you turn and walk away from them and step in a pile of dog shit, hang on I don't think I took my medication this morning. Better go and take it now.
:lol :finger :wall :wall mash

I know what you mean - I've just bought an R6 shock and dogbones for our Fazer 1000 from another member here that came from Devilsyam (Luke) - apparently it's a 20 min installation, just unbolt the old, bolt in the new - all the chuffin about (right shock model, conversion and dogbones etc) has been sorted by Luke before he sends out the kits.


I think it's the same with Kebab19 for the Fazer 600 kits - and they're wayy cheaper than Hagon/Nitron
