Here's a shot of Ohlins piggy back shocks on a triple project I was working on but I think I will move them to the Z1 project bike.
I bought them on ebay for about $450 + shipping. I got a little carried away in the final few minutes of the auction! They are for a Honda CB1000 (93-97) the model # is S36P.

Damn those are pretty! Is that a gixxer arm?
It's an '84 GPz550 swingarm that I had the boys in the toolroom cut down to fit the S3/KH400 frame. That my go on the Z1 too. I'll probably have to add spacers now!:ohmy:
Am53 don't those shocks mount with the piggyback on the bottom? I'm pretty sure my buddy used to have the same ones on his CBX mounted with the reservoir on the bottom.

What kind of lower mount u got? I have a set of all chrome GS1100 clevis mount shocks and a set of KZ1000 Progressive shocks in pretty good shape.Better than worn out stockers.BJI think I will keep my eyes open for some zrx or zephyr takeoffs, I am putting them on a swing arm that was originally a monoshock, so I can move the mounts back to accomodate the 14.5 inch length. Even if they are worn out they will be better than the super worn out tired old stockers I have!

You have to give them all sorts of info, but when you're done you get a set of piggy back shocks set up for your particular bike, your weight, and your riding style.
What more could you ask for, and only $600 :laugh:

OK on "the look".Lol.They arent going anywhere unless someone else on here wants em so if u change your mind(or your pocketbook becomes anorexic) holler at me.bjI don't have any bottom mount at the moment, I will put one on to match the shocks. I wouls get the progressive ones in a heartbeat, but I am stuck on the ELR look...thanks though.
