Title: 82 xr500 shock
Post by: frostype400 on January 19, 2016, 01:01:56 pm

My shock is pretty soft on my xr I was planning to get it done later but my husaberg requires repairs and I was planning on going riding next weekend so trying to decided which bike would be best to take as always left it to late maybe I can have it rebuilt locally but whether they would have the parts needed in stock any one have a 82 shock, thanks Michael.

I have an unidentified Honda shock Michael, can you send some pics or dimensions? Looks like an XR/XL shock.
Cheers,
K
