I offered 75$ for this nice RSV shock on ebay -
APRILIA RSV4 RR RF 2016 REAR SUSPENSION SHOCK ABSORBER SACHS LIKE NEW 900 MILES | eBay
Made a mistake with the shipping method, it stopped in customs and I'm unlikely to ever see it (Used suspension not allowed into Israel).
Prices for new / aftermarket shocks aren't reasonable to my sensibility (#itsaspring), but google offered this NC700 specific Aliexpress listing -
Rear suspension shock absorber 310mm For HONDA NC700X NC700S NC750X 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017-in Covers & Ornamental Mouldings from Automobiles & Motorcycles on AliExpress - 11.11_Double 11_Singles' Day
Says it has this and that adjustment, but I don't see the gas tank thingie like on my (never to actually be used by me) Sachs.
Then there's these -
Universal 320mm/340mm/355mm Motorcycle Air Shock Absorber Rear Suspension For Yamaha Motor Scooter ATV Quad Black & Gold-in Falling Protection from Automobiles & Motorcycles on AliExpress - 11.11_Double 11_Singles' Day
With the tank and everything, but not bike specific.
So, how bad of an idea is it to use Chinese suspension? What's the worst that could happen?
