    Hey guys, does anyone know the inner/outer diameter of the upper shock mount ride height spacers used on the stock shock?

    Ive got a few mm's of shim on my bikes and plan to help a friend out with some on his 750 and can't remember the size.

    Figured some of you may save me the time of pulling mine to measure.

    Thanks guys

    Biggest washer you can buy at Home Depot. 5/8" I think.

    3/4" washers, sorry. I looked at the spares I had in the toolbox last night. I think you can get some from Traxxion that are much fancier, but plain ol' zinc plated steel ones from Lowes work fine in a pinch.

    this is exactly what you need or it will not seat properly in the recess...


    27mm id and 32mm od... anything else will not allow your shock to sit right where the clevis mounts to the frame.
