At the moment i'm trying to get my suspension back to original manufacturer setting so i can tinker with it to suit my size.
Can anybody tell me the free length of the spring used on the rear shocker for a 1997 ZX7R, (i think its the same length for all models from 1996-2000).

Whips out owners manual.
Not sure if this helps mate.
ZX7R 96-onwards
Standard - Spring free length minus 13mm
Usable range - Spring free length minus 0-20.5mm
So from that, standard setting from the shop is the free length minus 13mm.

Thats what i got in my manual too. I rang Kwaka Aus and they dont even have that info cos the shocker comes as a single unit with the spring included.
I should ring up and see if they have the spring by itself for sale, and when the say yes, i'll ask them to measure it.

LMAO, too right. Cos they're only interested if they think you're gonna buy.
