Ohlins don't list a part for the 800ss but, I presume it's the same as the 900ssie and 1000ss. Can anyone confirm?

The shock for the 900 & 1000 is: 46PRCL
68mm stroke


Cheers!

The frames are the same - so the shock will definitely be too.
The only thing you should check is that the spring weight is good for your weight and riding requirements ;)

Cheers Phil. I'm actually ordering two plus a range of springs for my racer. I just wanted to be sure before the visa card came under fire.

I'm actually looking for an injection SS shock to fot my 583 ... and I'm a slinflint with too many bikes which all seem to need money spent on them ... so are you interested in selling one of your std shocks ?
It _has_ to better condition than the std one I have, and I want the slightly longer length of the ie shock to quicken up the steering a bit.

Chris you bugger!!! :barfy:

I have two very very good low-miles shocks here. One is almost brand new and I want to sell them to pay for my race bits.

Damn. I must be getting slow.

WTF is going on here with my posts?????

As I was saying....

One shock is brand new. £125 plus P&P
The other is less new and has some tarnishing on the body but, is fully functional with no leaks etc. £75 plus P&P.

Remote reservoir, position sensitive damping, adjustable compression and rebound damping.

I think that's a fair price. Let me know.

Cheers!

The 900 and the 1000 have a different swing arm from the late 800's...they got the sexy aluminum one AND adjustable ride heighth. Not sure if it makes a difference on the shock but may be worth checking on??
