MK Indy Shocks

Hi there

I'd be gratefull if you could let me know what the open and closed lenghts are for the shox for the font and rear. From what I can gather they look like 13inch open and 10 inch closed, can you confirm this for me?

I'd also be interested what spring lengths and spring rates you have used. I have a ZX9R engine in the chassis and intent to do some sprints and hill climbs with it as a reference point.

Many thanks

Ian

The front springs I ws supplied by MK were 350lb. I think this is what they supply regardles of what engine you are fitting.

On good advice, for my Fireblade engined MK, I changed mine for 275lb which I got from MAC1, though there are plenty of suppliers.
I've only got these sitting on their softest setting at the moment and they seem fine.
13/10" looks about right, again mine are 12" at rest.
