Valve stack for Ohlins rear shock.

Post by mitchyz250f »

I have an Ohlin rear shock from a GasGas 200 that is a direct (perfect fit) to my KDX. Question is does anyone have the appropriate KDX valve stack for this?

I know some people say that the rear shock is good and it is at trail riding but at desert racing speeds and motocross...not so much.

Thanks
Mitch

Wow, I never thought about trying my Ohlins 888 on the KDX. I love that shock! Thanks for the info.

Ive found one locally cheaper than I can get the stock shock rebuilt for.

Game on.

I got a shock from a 06 MC250. Fitted my 5.8 spring to it and it fits. Just needed a couple of spacers on the top mount.
