Coil over change out was created by Spectre1982
I've got a 1982 KZ 750 Spectre all stock. It has the air suspension front and rear. I'd like to change the rear to regular coil-overs. My air shocks bottom out with a 200 lb rider. I've had the psi at 10, 20, 30+ and it bottoms out. I think they're done for. Anybody have a good source I could look for new suspension components? I'd prefer a performance upgrade, but a stock set would suffice.

Thanks!

Call Dave Quinn. He can set you up a set of Hagons to match your bike/weight/riding style, etc. First class shocks and vendor. Lots of styles to pick from; stainless bodies and shrouds. I've had mine for 7 years and love them. Ed
