Kawasaki Kx65 Kx 65 Shock - Works Performance - Rear Piggyback - Used on 2040-parts.com
Morgan Hill, California, US
Rear 2 way adjustable Piggyback series shock unit, 13.13 inch long shock length (eye-to-eye) with heavy duty 5/8 inch diameter hard chromed high tensile steel shaft with powdercoated blue Single-Rate-Spring Set. The shock has spring pre-load adjustment standard to adjust rider sag. This shock has external compression damping adjustment on the piggyback web (speed or rate the shock compresses under a specific load). The rebound damping is set internally at the factory.
The shock length is designed for the 2000-2001 KX65. This shock is 13.13 inches long (eye-to-clevis), which is the stock shock length for Kawasaki KX65, 2000 and 2001. The 2002-2012 KX65 uses a 13.75 inch shock. The shock will work on a 2002-2012 KX65, but the seat height will be about 1" lower.
I purchased this shock in 2013 and we only used it a couple of times on the bike. My son has now moved on to another bike.
We used this shock on a 2006 KX65. As mentioned, for this year KX65 (2002-2012 KX65 bikes), this shock will lowers the seat height about 1". I also lowered the front fork tubes in the triple clamps a bit. This combination, lowered the bike, which allowed my son to be more comfortable on it.
The Works Performance shock was a big improvement over the stock KX65 shock. The external compression damping adjustment comes in real handy in adjusting the stiffness (compression) of the shock.
The shock is in very good used condition.
The shock sells new for $500+
