hi all

The rear shock on my 52 plate honda nsr125r has started to leak. Sad
Can anybody recommend a good company to rebuild it or can anybody recommend a good replacement?

If i get it rebuilt what sort of turn around time am i looking at roughly Question

Hi

There are people around who can rebuild shocks. Not sure if the NSR one can be rebuilt. Someone like Revs Racing might be able to help. Turnaround probably depends on what else is being done. Cost for a shock I had done was quoted between £65 and £95. So it would be cheaper to buy a 2nd hand one.

All the best

Keith

i agree with you kickstart
lennox if your bike is 1989 to 1992 (JC20) see https://www.bike-revival.co.uk/page1.html they have nice adjustable betor £100ish
i saw a good one here https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HONDA-NSR-125RK-1991-92-SHOCK-NOT-FOXEYE_W0QQitemZ150124045218QQihZ005QQcategoryZ10460QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
but if you have a 1993 & later no aftermarket item and the genuine one is £200 so a second hand will be cheaper
