Does anyone know if the VFR NC24 rear shock will fit the NC23 :?:

I've bought one but not recieved it yet & the guy is prepared to re-list it if I don't want it :stupid: :oops:

Has anybody fitted one

Any info would be much appreciated :wink:

Em 8-)

BTW I'll be posting soon about my experiences with the NC23 & putting some pics up :smile:

You'd be far better off fitting a newer CBR600 shock than a knackered old NC24 shock. I'm not certain if the NC24 shock would fit the NC23 but they were a bit crap when new anyway.

Graeme France should be able to sort you out.

Thanks Jim :smile:

I'll probably upgrade the spring on my spare shock as the damping is fine just the spring is too hard for solo work :(

It's fine with a pilly but finding one small enough as regular "ballast", is proving difficult and restrictive :oops:

BTW any particular model or year of CBR 600 I should be looking at for a donor shock :?:

:rocks:

I'm pretty sure that the first 'jelly mould' CBR600 shocks fit. There's some info in this thread:-

Alternatively if you fancy splashing out a bit more GF does a kit with the linkage and upgraded spring:-
