Hi peeps,

Was wondering what aftermarket suspensions i can fit on my zx4.. i ain't sure whether mine has seized yet but it sure is hard as a rock. I can't hold on to my ride for more than 5 mins without my arse flying in the air when i go thru a batch of bumpy roads.

Hi

Kawasaki did go for a time fitting rediculously hard rear suspension. However if it is that bad then I would suspect someone has either adjusted the spring preload too tight, or more likely the rear suspension linkages have seized up.

I would strip and grease the rear linkages first before splashing money on a rear shock.

All the best

Keith
