Super-plush shocks for your classic, 1975 and older vintage dirt bike! Product Description
tasked their engineers with a challenge: to make a durable, great feeling shock with lots of travel, but keep the overall profile slim like the shocks that were originally spec’d on your bike. Back in the day, names like Koni, Girling, and Betor were common as original equipment, so chain lines, brake rods, and exhaust systems were all designed with their dimensions in mind. Available in 13.5 and 14.25 inch eye-to-eye lengths, Vonkat’s Classic Slimline shocks are made to bolt on to your classic bike with no modifications needed. Every pair is supplied with 12, 10, and 8mm bushings. When we say “vintage” dirt bikes, we mean standard-travel suspension bikes from about 1975 on back. How to know if your bike is vintage Obviously, the year model is a tell, but the position of the shock on the frame and swingarm will really let you know. The mounting point on the swingarm is going to be either directly above the axle, or only 1-3 inches or so in front of the most forward position in the axle slot. Sold in pairs.
