R6 rear shock on the FZS600

[mobile mouse]

The spacer came with the shock already fitted. Sorry to be no help.

Thought I would give people a  :lol  and add to this topic. Got all the upgrade parts but not the spacer - quotes for this ranged from £87 - £165 for a basic bit of drilling an aluminium billet! So got a billet from evilbay (£4) used a hole saw to cut centre and axle grinder and file to reduce diameter and shape a lip to fit preload adjuster.
What a unsightly monster it is but .....works perfectly

Anyone happen to have any suitable dog bones for sale?
Or know a good source for some?

I keep looking here for the 130mm option, but they have other sizes all for £19.95

I'm going to swap mine for a thou one when I get the chance, I've got the shock I just need the time.

I have had a thou one on my 600" with 600 spring," for some 6 years now It works a treat and is totally forgettable. most inexpensive mod I ever did Think the details are one of my old posts!
I have an R6 shox on my thou. Its good albeit slightly soft ,but not as good as the former

Not sure if this thread is still active but I'm now trying my own hand at this mod and having some difficulties with the spring inner and outer diameter. I ordered a 2.25"ID , 6" Length faulkner's spring in order to fit it onto the 2C0 shock, and after receiving it, both the inner and outer diameter are much bigger than that of the stock R6 2C0 spring, to the point that the spacer I had made going off the stock R6 spring measurements wobbles around in the spring A LOT, and I don't feel like it would be smart to mount that on the bike

When making the spacer, would it be smart to make the inner diameter AS WELL AS the outer diameter bigger, in order to allow absolutely no wiggle room on the bike?
Also, would it be smart to manufacture a spacer for the top of the shock as well, in order to keep the spring centered at both the top and bottom of the shock?

Photos of what I'm referring to below.

Thanks in advance for any help.
