CB650Z the invisible bike?
« on: June 17, 2009, 01:59:22 AM »
Having gone on a search for new rear shocks on my CB650Z I find hardly anyone lists the 650, most cover the 750 in all its' variations the 450/500/550 all there!
Some sites cover the 650 Custom but not the "Z" model that Europe and the lower Pacific got.
Did someone forget to tell the spares people that Honda turned out a 650cc machine from 1979 to 1982, for pitys' sake it was the last...the very last of the SOHC4's!!!! >:(
OK rant over, move along, nothing to see here. :D

Just look for eye/clevis shocks with the correct length and spring rate for your needs.  Doesn't much matter what bike they're labeled for. :)

I've actually purchased 750 ones from David Silver, they are same length and fitting, nice to know the Honda guys liked them enough to keep some things standard.
