Title: Will these shocks work on a RD350 with stock pipes?
Post by: Twidget on February 05, 2022, 12:16:12 PM
I am looking for decent shocks that will work on an rd350 with stock pipes.  So far this is the best I could come up with, but I'm afraid they might be a little long for stock pipes:

Is 320mm/12.5" about the length limit for bikes with stock pipes?

Any other suggestions for good options out there that perform better than stock, but aren't $300ea custom shocks?

Or these?

It seems like what I might need are the red wing KM-S320's, but of course those are nowhere to be found.

Any significant difference between the Red Wing's and the Assault's?   

Equally crappy?  :haw:
