Hi I'm doing some research for my undergrad degree and I need a rear shock. doesn't have to be in great condition. I mean it can be leaking as long as the damper is kind of functional. 

Will a motorbike shock work, or must it be off a bicycle?

That could also work, what kind of shock is it?

I have from a 2012 Kawasaki ZX6 and a 2007 CBR150. You can DM me if those will work for you.

Hi

Does anyone in the Gauteng/Johannesburg/Kempton Park/Boksburg/Sandton/Benoni and surrounding areas have a 44mm wide Road handle bars. 31.8 diameter all through out and not just on the clamp point.

I'm willing to pay, just prefer not to travel too far. I do have a Thinner bar, if you would want to trade instead.

Thanks in advance

So should it be may or might 😁. I am referring to the name of this thread

I reckon ‘might’ works better than ‘may’…

‘might JUST’ would work better than (only) ‘might’…

…and then if using ‘may’; the context would be strengthened by adding the word ‘decide’ as in…’may decide’…

Wonderful how half-a-bottle of wine allows me to fabricate these (this?) answer(s)!

So now that we've resolved my bugg bear it is time for me to ask, I am looking for one of those blue dials on a rear shock where the cable fixes to (for remote lockout), those items are quite pricey. Strange thing happened to one of mine: the grub screw broke out of the dial and took a big chunk along with it. Most probably metal fatigue but alas, such is life 

[Shebeen]

busted a XO 10spd RD cage (don't ask!).

anyone got something similar lying around?
