Dumb question - what size lenght is the FJ1100 rear shock?
I'm ordering a shock sock and I don't have the bike in front of me...

Thanks a bunch!

In other words, should I go for a 6'', 7'' or 8'' size shock sock?

Hey Nat, do you have the oem Yamaha shock or a aftermarket?

I just sent my '84's Penske to nvmike24 so I don't have it to measure, sorry.

Mike, got your ears on? Can you help Nat?

Thanks Pat,

it IS an aftermarket Penske...

FYI,

When I get the new RPM rear shock completed I will offer a sock that will work for it. I am sure it will fit all other brands as well.

Thanks Randy!

I found out that it's a 6'' inch shock sock that I need for the Penske.

Thanks for the help, and looking forward to seeing the full set of RPM shocks!
