    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

Trying to make certain I get the right shock.

What years of Monster fit? 750/900 identical?

I've read that the spring is stiff. I weigh 230 in gear. Will it be sufficient?

I appreciate any information you guys can send my way.

Merry Christmas!

this is the one I was told should fit I have a 85 GS1150ES
 
M900 Shock. ON my 750 the shock with DUc spring only started to feel close with 170lb of Nephew on the back.

I'm about 165lb. It might still be too stiff even with you extra lb's and the extra lb's of the 1150.

The stock spring fits & the Duc shock lets you run more preload than the stocker...
 
Thank you! I have purchased one from a member and it is headed my way. I am looking forward to getting rid of the squishy wallow of the old, thrashed original shock and spring.
 
The air valve is on top facing the engine. Attach the top first and then jack the bottom of the shock to line up the holes.
I also supported the swing arm by crossing both sides with a 2x4 and a small jack.
