What rear shock fits '93 600F?

WHOOPS! Found my answer at

http://katriders.com/wiki/index.php5?title=Shocks

But I'd still like to know -- do all y'all with the stock shock get this shloopy feeling around corners?

Ignore the bit below this line

Hi all, sorry if this is the wrong forum (I was looking at the list of forums, and there's no "parts"... so I chose the nearest one. This was it!)...

I might need a new rear shock, and was wondering what other shocks may fit my bike (1993 600cc). I'm avoiding buying new, and want to see what else is out there that'll fit (the stock looks like it rusts within a week!)

I'm thinking I'll need a new one as it seems to shlump over corners, and while braking. Is this really how this bike reacts, or do you think I need a new shock?

Thanks,

Tom

That feeling is all the damping gone from your current shock..

Okay, I thought something was wrong. Thanks!

Thanks Peter! Any recommendations? I'm thinking about the post-98 shocks.

They will be old and beat too..
My suggestion:
Hayabusa shock.
A rebuilt shock by Tmod..
A Bandit shock that is newish.
Loud and low posted about the R6 shock I think..

I put a B12 (Bandit 1200) shock on my pre600. Feeling is phenomenally better! My gf loves being able to see above my helmet when we ride 2-up too. Found mine on eBay for like $80 shipped and it was from an 05 I think with under 10k on the clock.

I have a post 98 shock that was rebuilt by Tmod. I absolutely love it.
