@newzeroauckland Hi! This is simple, stock pitbike shock. It's 20mm longer than original one, has 20mm more travel (50mm) and is more progressive. In my case it was a necessity due to 130/80 rear tire. Stock locking plates are now just "locking washers", on top of them I placed longer plates made from 3mm aluminium. I also shaved off some material from left fender mount to accommodate brake. Now I'm looking for TC max rear brake mounting plate to put larger disk on the rear, and for oversized kit for the front.

Love the looks but it looks like very small clearance there, between the tire and the body.

@howlerin let's say that is as big as it should and as small as possible... swingarm is to short to move wheel back 😉

@mazingetter It's just cheap 30$ pitbike shock, it's progressive so first part of travel is really soft and cushy. I will update it to fully adjustable one after I change my front suspension to little bit longer 😉
