what length

[hampster]

Hi,

Spending the big money on a set of works performance shocks they are going on 250 and 400 black frames with 74 swing arms in them they both have the alloy fork mod with the extra travel.

I just don't know what length and spring rate?

I can get them in 13 1/2 and 14.2 in lengths and spring rate up to 200 pounds or over 200 i thinks 200 pounds is 95kg.

Any advice from cz land would rewarded with beer the next time we meet.

Chris.

Hi chris, I have just put a set of 14.20" on my 1973 cz380, as I am an old 6foot person in the old measurements I found the bike was way to low with the 13.5' ones on. It now looks a lot more level when sitting off the stand.  HL

Believe it or not but my 73 400 has 400mm xl185? shocks on it, not sure what it'll be like once I've fitted a decent set of 360mm shocks down the track. Few more things to be done to it before then

Hi,
If you have  7 inches travel  in the front , use a 360 length in the rear, on all, but not on a 74 red frame
