Shock swapping fitment?
Do zx6 shocks,or similar MW bikes shocks fit? Or better way to ask.....what shocks have you fit without issue? I need middle of the road since this bike will be for a loaner/backup racebike.Thanks

I run a ZX600 in mine, direct bolt on item, http://faq.ninja250.org/wiki/Installing_a_ZX600_shock
But the most popular swap is on from a NewGen Ninjette, which is another straight swap, bolt on, http://faq.ninja250.org/wiki/Install...k_on_a_Classic There's other options, http://faq.ninja250.org/wiki/Rear_suspension_upgrades

I have used both of the new-gen 250 and 300 shocks - direct bolt in. I don't race, so I am unsure if they will provide the results that you are looking for.

I've recently also installed a pair of BIG BOY LIFT LINKS it raises the back up about an 1 1/4" and helps make the turn in quicker.
