Spike101uk Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Does anybody know of its possible to move the rear shock mount from existing one to the fender mounting hole on an xv125a about 3 inch to left and up a bit on pic I'm assuming pretty simply if I installed a 10mm bush and used a high strength m10 bolt it and bolted it on it would be fine, but worry about the new angle of shock, basically I'm trying to lower it as much as I can and my curent shocks are 11.5 eye to eye and seen some that are 10.5 eye to eye, but want about 2.5 inch drop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Not saying you can't do it but is that not a mudguard mounting bolt? I would think that it's going to put a lot of strain on the casting, it might be ok but will it break in time would be my worry, lot's of bracing might fend off any problems or just buy a pair of shorter shocks! Got to be a pair out there that fill your needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sacha Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 What about using a bracket-style lowering kit? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
