Easter Special Cb500x Level 1 Shock (2019-2021) Essentials [kOyf5RPN]

CB500X LEVEL 1 Shock - STANDARD TRAVEL/SEAT HEIGHT rear suspension upgrade (suitable for CB500X 2019-2021 model years)

Developed in conjunction with our suspension partners TracTive Suspension in the Netherlands, this high-quality aluminium replacement shock features adjustable damping and a choice of spring rates to suit a wide range of rider/luggage weights and applications.

Along with traditional manual preload adjustment, our standard LEVEL 1 shock can also be upgraded with a dedicated Remote Hydraulic Preload Adjuster, allowing quick and easy adjustment of the spring preload a further +/-10mm to compensate for additional loads such as luggage or a passenger.

Shock body features an easily accessible combined damping adjuster (at a fixed ratio of 80% Rebound and 20% Compression), with 24 clicks of adjustment.

Choice of four spring rates at the point of purchase: 100 N/mm, 110 N/mm (standard), 120 N/mm and 130 N/mm.

Note. This is the REAR SHOCK ONLY, if you require a complete standard travel front & rear upgrade, please also add the LEVEL 1 Fork Kit (2019-2021) to your cart.

OPTIONAL HYDRAULIC PRELOAD ADJUSTER (for CB500X LEVEL 1 & LEVEL 2 rear shocks).

Our Hydraulic Preload Adjuster is designed for riders that want quick, easy adjustment of spring preload. It allows the preload to be adjusted over a range of +/-10mm with the simple turning of a knob. Approximately 20 turns will achieve the full movement of the preload piston travel, and the knob has a 'click' every half-turn to aid setting.
 

Quick tool-less preload adjustment is much preferred by those riders who wish to alter the preload/rear sag setting on a regular basis - typically when carrying extra luggage or a passenger, or when going from street to off-road travelling.

Supplied ready assembled on your shock together with the correct length/rate spring selected at the point of purchase.
