Z750 rear shock upgrade

Pretty happy with my 06 z750 but a better quality rear shock might smooth the bumps out a bit.
Anyone had any experience with a simple upgrade from another model?

Re: Z750 starter button

I gave it a light spray with some carbie cleaner then a blow out with Compressed air. Easy fix and I was pretty happy with myself

Z750 starter button

Anyone had any trouble with an intermittent starter button fault. On an 06 z750. I'll have a look tomorrow. Not sure if it will be a contact cleaning or a faulty switch. Electrics are not my strong point

Re: I.D. a Z1000 I just bought

Just saw this post again after not being on this forum for a while. Really interesting to see the trail. I've regretted selling this bike a few times as the Z1000MKII was one of my alltime favourite bikes. Really happy and jealous of the new owner, not to mention impressed that the problem has been ...

Re: GPZ1000

As tempting as it was, With 4 bikes in the shed and one living outside because it doesn't fit in the shed I've had to knock back this 89 ZX10. Sometimes we just have to know when to say no.
It was offered to me free because the owner thought he owed me a favour. (not true)
It could be yours for only ...

Re: GPZ1000

Got a couple of murky photos last night. Compliance plate says 1989 ZX1000B so looks like it's a ZX10

GPZ1000

Just got offered a GPZ1000 for free.
No fairings, rusted tank but apparently complete besides that and was a runner a few years ago.
I was more enthusiastic when this generous person told me it was a GPZ1100 but there was a time when I thought they were interesting. Photos being sent to me today. I ...

Re: 2006 Z750 handlebars and Ventura rack

That's what I'm trying to get away from.
I bought this bike recently and it has aftermarket bars which are too wide.
I'm looking for a set of standard bars.

Re: GPz900r (A8) 18" Rear Tyre Review

There's nothing wrong with a Metzeler Lasertec. Sounds like you know the history of it so keep using it.
Tyres don't need to be matched as the same brand. How wide is your rear rim to use a 150 tyre?
I've been thinking of a wheel upgrade for my GPZ750 to get the better brakes. Is your front a 16?
