Project 36, a 1986 VFR750, has its new M-Shock installed and looking pretty. Together with the RaceTech fork emulators and .95kg springs, that completes the suspension upgrades for this project.
The shock installed easily from the top and fit perfectly. The preload adjustment rings and compression/rebound clicker are accessible from the left side.
A weak point on this generation Interceptor is the suspension, which was "okay" back in the day (and still is, for non-assertive riding) but we can do better these days.
The total cost for the front and rear components came to about $900. I don't think that's out of line for new, quality components which give us custom adjustability. These great machines deserve that.
