Im lookin to upgrad the rear suspension I was told cr80 piggy backs are good but they are hard to come across. what other bikes can i take them off of xr75, xl100 or xr100?

I bought a nice set of Kitaco's 280mm from classichondausa.com

They are substantially better than the stockers and are adjustable.

i went to the junk pile at the local bike salvage they had a box of rear shocks just dug through everything , if you have a shop like that around you,
you might try batescycle.com just ask for ricky
thats where the box is and ricky rides z50's too so he familiar with them
they will also ship them to you
what ft end are you going to run? what length you are going to run on the swing arm ? makes a difference so know that b4 you decide on shock length

and the classic honda idea is a good one too
i got a buddy that runs those kitaco's and he says they are fine
we ride on some ruff terain sometimes, he weigh's about 180
and he is running an xr75 swing arm also
i dont remeber the length but they r too tall, thats
all he has ever said bad about them, and that isnt the shocks fault
hope that helps

alright thanks Im running stock forks with springs and bushings i was planning on using the stock swingarm but if I come across one for cheap I might get it. I will most likely go with the kitacos
