1G or 2G 600 shock
« on: December 15, 2005, 05:42:58 AM »
Does anyone know if I can fit a 2000 (2G) 600 shock to my 1G 600 bandit? Will it fit straight in or do I need a specific 1G shock?

Many Thanks

If you are looking for a cheap upgrade for your rear shock, you should pick up a 1g 1200 rear shock.  I would imagine, IMHO, that would give you a better ride than a 2g b6 shock.  I put one on my 1g b6 and there was a good amount improvement.
Wait for me!!

Yeah, I put a 1G 1200 shock on my 96 B6. What a dif! :banana:  It was very easy to do and I got it used right here on this form. I would most def go with the 1200 shock mod. It's cheap, easy, and make a BIG dif in the ride and handling.
