Hi Guys. Does any one know if a CBR600 shock will fit the Firestorm? Here is the link.
Thanks.

Not out the box as the CBR shock is shorter than the Storms

On the US Superhawk forum there's a suspension guy - Jamie Daugherty in Indiana - who rebuilds F4 /F4i shocks and lengthens them to suit

Get out this weekend, It's going to be good- then let us all know how its going.
What shock did you use to modify & did you get it posted directly to him, how much did it cost you in the end?
