    rear shock for a1985 gs700es

    I am in need for a rear shock for my 1985 gs700es. I can't find one anywhere. I also don't know what stock item number ot type it is

    Early GSXR will go almost straight in , as long as get one with a ride height adjuster , try a Fox shox shock.

      look at the 750 models similar to yours and possibly the 1150 monoshock.

        The 1150E monoshock will fit as I have one mounted on my 83 GS750ED. If I remember correctly it is slightly taller, but to such a small degree that you will not really notice any difference in ride. Any good aftermarket shock will work but will cost a lot more $. Good Luck, Ed.

          Some of the late market Yamahas use what looks like the same type shock mounts. If you could find one made for one of them as long as it had a ride height adjuster it will work with a heavier spring. The R6 is much lighter than your 700.

            The R1 shocks look to be the same too. Ebay sellers should be able to give the lengths of the shocks.
