Hello. I was wondering if the rear shock on the 2012- Cbr1000rr is a nice upgrade? Will it be a noticeable difference compared to a 2009 shock in good conditon? I have had the front forks fully serviced and resprung for my weight the last week. I have seen a coupe of shocks at ebay for about 200£. Are they worth it? And will any shock of the 2012- fit my abs bike?
The 2012 shock is a good cheap upgrade and works very well and should fit your bike no problem, I fitted one to my 2008 bike and have noticed a lot of difference, helps even more so if you have the static sag sorted too Aftermarket shocks might be different due to hydraulic pre-load adjusters getting in the way of the abs box
I've got a 2013 rearshock going up for sale soon, as good as new(under 1000miles), only looking for 125£ p&p included.... send a message if interested
