Busa shock NO WORKY with 1st Gen B12 ABS!!
« on: January 07, 2007, 03:22:13 PM »
Yo banditos,


  So I ordered up an 06 Busa shock for my Bandit, and am currently (as in right now) in the process of trying to shimmy the thing in there..  Well, I never really thought about the difference in the ABS model..

 I'm going to move forward to see if it'll fit, but wondering if anyone has any info or experience with this??

 (ie. the ABS hydraulic unit looks like it's going to create awfully close clearance for the top of this shock!



  Any help much appreciated!!

POSSIBLY

I could see it being CONCEIVABLE to move the ABS hydraulic unit, but we're talkin' about a battery-sized hydraulic controller with both electrics and brake lines connected to it.. It'd be a ROYAL pain in the ass, if possible at all..   I'm not even sure where it could possibly be moved to...
