Rear shok changeability,for a 1982 gs 550ed,

[Guiseppi]

I replaced my rear shock with the performance onefrom my 1989 kawasaki ninja ZX7 H1 and it fit with no mods,all I have to do is get a longer hose for the reservoir,I just thought I would share that in case any of you were wondering what mods you can do and what parst were interchangeable,

took it out for a ride in the twisties today,damn it handles like a mofo,it's frickin sweet,now I just have to make a few adjustments with the sag and it should be ready to go,all I have to do now is put some dunlop 501s on it will stick a whole lot better,
