Review on Custom Motorcycle Shock Absorber Rear Suspension Round Eye Adapters Orange By FOXSTAR by Travis Chavis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Like all expensive shock absorbers

I've been using it on my Yamaha SR400 for a few weeks now and it's really good, the bike is a bit taller, I didn't have to buy a new chain, I just had to do it to length/ adjusting the clearance to make the wheel tighter - the chain was too tight, the stock shocks were 12", and when mounted on the center stand was still about 1" off the ground. Shame I didn't buy the 14mm spacers because if you remove the ones that came with the shocks the hole in the rubber was a snug fit, it had about 1mm of room - I can force it in but it is a lot of work rubber softer than stock so I decided to use stock, just wish there were some instructions on how to set it up and maintain it - hopefully the company responds to that.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Repair
