Posted March 14, 200916 yr I would be really grateful if someone could point me in the direction of where I might find a rear mono shock for my 1980 DT175 mx. Yamaha will supply a new one at over £300 which, although keeping original is important, is just too much. I have searched quite well through Google but so far no joy. Also, can anyone confirm if the DT125 shared the same shock at the time?

March 19, 200916 yr Moderator Thank you. I have found a 'new' shock for a 125 and will give it a try. They are the same, so where did you find the new one after all these years?
