Another shock / spring question here - so did you replace that spring with a new OE spring or ? Also looking to revive my ninja 650 shock/forks. Good info on removing the spring - great content but we ALL want to know what you used ??
What does the Kawi ride like after the shock upgrade? I'm looking at upgrading my Kawi's suspension front and back but curious as to how pronounced the difference is in the ride
Hi sir.. I’m from india i need to ask that what is the size of rear shock bcoz i have ninja 650 2014 model and i have to replace it.. so please can tell me what should be the rear shock size of kawasaki ninja 650r 2014 model? If rply I would be great help for me.. thank you...
Ive got a 2018 ninja 650 and going to replace the rear shock.. question as this will be close to the same setup as your z650 will i be able to remove the shock top bolt from the sides or will i have to do it by removing the tank? Would be a great help for you opinion
It will literally drop back in. It prys out more easily than it looks. You can always compress the spring more if it seems stuck coming out. I kept my opening as tight as possible to the retainer when I cut it to err on the side of safety.
What was the upgrade did u just put a new oem shock in
Hey buddy, keep doing what you’re doing. I have the same ninja 650, love it, don’t want a liter bike and can’t find any support on this bike anywhere.
"We're gonna come in from the rear" definitely the highlight of the video
Thank you for your videos, I like the way you say to us to be cautious about compressed suspensions.
You made my day. Thanks for that video. Great stuff!

Great video, I'd be grateful if you could explain the "Triple Tree" aspect of this project.
Where did you get the replacement shock? I can’t seem to find many options on revzilla and cycle gear..

How much was the cost of rear suspension, i have an 2016 er6n and its rear shocker is shocking to say the least 😑. Thanks in advance.

The part at the end, is the spring shot and the middle portion still good? Essentially you could just buy a spring and have a perfectly good shock?
Looking awesome. When do you anticipate having this on the road?
in about 5 minutes :) Filming the Bazaaz tuning video now
man, that's cool, good stuff

Do you know if there’s a way to raise the rear of the Z650?
Would this upgrade work on thr z650 as well?
How do you get the spring retainer back on there when you go to reassemble it? It looks like you really had to pry it out of there?

Tremonte thank you so much!
Will I need to strap the bike up if I have an abba super bike stand that lifts from the swing arm pivot?
No, you should be ok
Tremonte very cool. This video was helpful. Thank you.
