1 K100 LT Rear Shock Wed Dec 04, 2013 10:11 am
K100LT Notts

I just finished doing my annual winter oil change, when I noticed that the rear shock had emptied its contents over the back wheel. It also had no resistance to movement = knackered shock.
In my Hayes manual it gives specifications of spring length and spring wire diameter but says Except K100LT. Does this mean that a K100 shock is not the same as one for a 1992 K100LT? (Note I do not have the Nivomat self levalling unit)
I have looked for a used shock and have ordered one from ebay as much cheaper then new unit. But now I am not sure that a K100 shock is the same. Any advice or source for correct shock is welcome.
