Top shock Mount Query
Top shock Mount Query
Hello everyone.
Should the shock sit centrally between the top mounting brackets or is it offset to one side?
The shock on my '95 bike sits over to the RHS bracket (when looking from behind) and there is a gap of around 10 or 15mm over to the LHS bracket.
The shock reservoir is badged as 'Techno Flex' so i think it may be an aftermarket shock which the previous owner fitted and I'd like to make sure that it's sitting as it should at the mounting points (no spacers / bushes missing etc).
Cheers,
Ross

Ok, just registered with photobucket & bikepics so I can get links to my photos.
Here is a link to a photo showing my bike's rear top shock mount:
See how the shock sits over to the RHS?
Should itsit centrally?
Are there spacers / bushings etc missing?
It doesn't look quite right to me...
