Why use 95 rr shock why not 954

[HERBXX]

27 shipping seems high but i guess they are making up

on th 19 price . I think im getting a used stock shock from

redbird so i will see what shipping really costs .

When i looked at the ohlins page the shock they sell for the

954 has more travel then the cbr1100xx.

I think im going to make new triangle plates instead of changing the dog bone , as i can make the plates for about nothing . I dont think this will change the ratios

anymore then using a different dog bone, but i have a long winter to work it out

Im still not sure how im going to make the xx spring work

on the 954 shock. Im thinking i might be able to turn

a longer perch to let it extend down further on the bottom

of the shock. worst case im betting i can cut the xx spring

down and flatten the cut coild a bit to make it work.

The 954 shock shouldt need more rebound damping to deal with the heavier damping. If anybody knows what was done

to a 929 or 954 shock to suport a heavy spring please let me know . I m think i will just put an extra shim, or two in the rebound stack and give it a try. My brother has a regulator that i think we can use to reload the shock

with gas. I have argon that is more inert then nitrogen so i

imagine it will work fine in the shock.

There is lots of unknows but i like to play.
