Adjustable Shock
I am 215lbs and 6'3" tall. I ride double with my wife sometimes on my 2004 250. The rear shock compresses down of course. Will the shock from a 2008 and up 250 fit? I want one I can adjust the preload on. How easy is the removal and install. THANKS!

Yes, I have one from a 2008+ on my 2005 and it is a big improvement. Preload is adjustable, and installation was not difficult. I also changed my front springs for another big improvement.
Here is more information about the options: https://faq.ninja250.org/wiki/Suspension |

Will the shock from a Ninja 300 fit? I see a lot of those on ebay too.

I’ve had this (https://faq.ninja250.org/wiki/Installing_a_ZX600_shock) on my Ninja since, 2011 maybe? I love it.
