Rg125f boring paint

Skyteam Ace 125, suspension upgraded via some spacers, 16mm worth.

Easy to get forks out

While it was out, banged on the disc a few times to straighten it, poor thing is a little over worked.

On to the Rg125F, stripped rear shock, we have a

295mm length (c to c), 30mm fork at bottom, 30mm eye on top. m10 bolts.
160mm coil length on shock, 9.9mm diameter metal, 5.5coil 2 dead coils. 70mm outer diameter
175mm length off shock, one end is little smaller, last coil so not calculating that.
closed and ground spring

using an online calculator thats a 8.0kg/mm spring, 2010-13 s1000r shock with lots of cutting of frame is a cheap upgrade, spring is only 8.2 to 8.4, so a little stiffer, but not too much. have to get my hand on one.

Vj21 rear seat (left) vs Rg125F seat, rg125f is fat fuck.

so i had a vj21 in shed, do the plastics fit?

No, but i’m not gonna let that stop me from fitting some, such slimness!
