yeh they pretty much the same, if they have any play just put spacers on each side and tighten up with locking washers too, this will stop any play or chances of it coming loose

So which one is the same then?

I was meaning the same as in with all the same adjusters mine has.

(mine has a turny knob on the bottom of the shock aswell as the pre-load adjustment and the remote thing that also adjusts something technical aint i :)

Cheers.
I knew the standard 125 shock would work i was just being anal trying to get one exactly the same as the original :)
Probably just use a 125 one for now until i come across an original on ebay (or possible try getting mine repaired depending on cost)

Thanks

Yahoo Auctions Japan is your friend, you just need to be able to get it shipped over!

I had a little look and the prices are WAY too high,more so with the shipping cost included.  (seemed to be about double of what it would cost here)

Not even bothered with the shock yet.

The bike wasn't running properly so the engine is now stripped for a full bearing and oil seal change.Top end is getting honed and a +1 piston put in.

The oil crankshaft oil seal had ate itself somehow :).

 

I can't get the barrel and piston for I can't get the barrel and piston for  (avatar) bike until after xmas which is a bit of a twunt! I had plans.

It'll be all good when it's done anyway.
Got myself a transit van now aswell so i can travel round the country a bit for some off roading :)
