Who knows the exact model of our rear shock?

[Markino]

Hi guys,
do you know if the NC750X has the same rear shock of the NC700X?
What is the exact brand/model of the NC750X shock?


Thanks!

It's probably made by Showa which is almost a Honda subsidiary but I doubt if it has a "model name" other than the Part Number in the catalog.

Acc... anyone has some pics of the shock at least?

I will soon, my Tuono shock shows up tomorrow. I'll be removing the springs from both shocks and making measurements.

Thanks man!

The NC700X and the NC750X have the same part numbers for the rear shock so they will be the same for both models.

Thanks for the info!

still waiting for UPS to bring the Tuono shock, but I got the following number off of the stock 2013 NC700X rear shock and spring:

spring installed on shock, max length (min preload): 231mm or 9 1/8"; min length (max preload): 220mm or 8 5/8"
shock travel (to the rubber bumber, rubber not compressed): 31mm or 1 9/16"
shock length center of eye to center of eye: 311 mm or 12 1/4"
spring #'s
free length: 9.5" or 242mm
number of free coils: 6.125
OD: 2.983-3.073
ID: 1.979-2.066
coil diameter center to center 2.575
wire diameter: .50
put these into F650 Spring Rate Claculator FAQ
and the stock rate comes out to 878 pounds per inch or 15.7 kg/mm or 154 N/mm (which is a little higher than the numbers quoted in the tuono shock thread)
