    aftermarket mono-shock for an 83 GS750E

    Is there a supplier for aftermarket mono-shocks for the 83 GS750E's??

    I notice Progressive doesn't make one, just wondering other alternatives/costs that are out there.

    Previous owner mentioned he planned to replace it with a GSXR mono shock, but said it would require some minor fabrication.

    Anyone know what model GSXR and the fabrication involved?

    Thanks

      Fox and Ohlins used to make them back in the day.

      The GS1150 shock will work also with no mods- it is probably more of an option due to the number still around on the track.

      Good Luck, Ed.

        Thanks guys. I actually got lucky - well sort of - and found that Hagons makes an aftermarket one still available.

        Trouble is, they start at a whopping $375!! WTF?? You can get two shocks for around 180 from them. Weird.

        I think I may try to just find one from a low mileage 1150 - thanks a million for that info!!
