Description
Designed and made in southern France, these Shock Factory dampers are fantastic quality for the price!
All the alloy parts are CNC-milled from solid aluminium, then anodized for a perfect and durable finish. The springs are finished in black oven-baked epoxy paint.
Shaft diameter 12mm, piston diameter 25mm.
Same length as factory standard.
Adjustment for hardness (both compression and rebound) via a manual 14-position knob, the changing the setting takes seconds!
Adjustment for preload with key supplied.
Sold in pairs.
Delivered pre-adjusted for an "average" use: mostly solo use, with average-weight rider. See below the heavy-duty option is you think it will better suit your needs.
Option 1
You can order a heavy-duty version which will come with harder springs and pre-adjusted on harder settings - choose this if you meet one or more of the following criteria:
- you ride mostly solo but weigh 150kg/340lbs or more
- you ride most often with a passenger and/or luggage
Option 2
You can order a set of shocks 20mm longer or shorter than the factory length, to raise or lower the rear of your bike. This can help accommodate long/short legs, but also give the bike a sportier stance and a more dynamic behaviour. Please note, changing the bike's height will affect the usefulness of the centre stand if you bike has one.
Fitment
Easy fitment, direct replacement of the original dampers with no modification required.
12 month warranty.
