Refreshing non-rebuildable shocks
« on: January 27, 2006, 09:21:59 AM »
I have noticed many questions regarding rebuilding/ replacing old factory shocks, and being a poor college student I have been looking for a cheap solution for my K6. While searching, I found the following article [http://www.off-road.com/dirtbike/tech/saveshocks/] and thought about trying the idea as a temporary fix. Has anyone tried this before, and if so, how did it turn out?
Thanks

cbjunkie,
 Thanks, I had no idea that new shocks could be obtained that cheap. Much better option than what I found.
