Hey all trying to get back to my build after a it has been put on the back burner for a bit.
Buying shorter shocks for the rear end and will use the Rebel shocks. As fair as I know the standard Rebels are 10.5 eye to eye? But all the replacment ones on ebay are 11.5? has anyone bought these? Any advice? Cheers.

They ride great, actually. No bottoming out, very smooth ride.

Yeah think I am sold on them, just strange they are a different length to the originals? I can get them for $109 Aussie dollars to my door off ebay, which is about $700 better then buying new ones from Honda!. Thanks for the reply and nice bike!

EDIT: I hate leaving threads unfinished, so if anyone has searched and found this thread, you can see pics of the rebel v Stock on my build thread 650rider.com/index.php...3226#73226 Cool.
