Hi all,
I've had my 146 for over a year with no major problems but find the back a bit 'choppy' at times. I was looking into alternative shocks but can't find any info into the size and stroke of the current shock.
Any one out there know?

Have you spoken to Loco/Mojo/J-Tech about the shock?

I'd defintely look at getting your existing shock tuned rather than just buying an afermarket one and slapping it in.

With the current one you know what changes you want to make to the characteristics and TFtuned etc can work from what you have to achieve it.

It probably already has a custom tune and anythign off the shelf will be an unknown start point.

Get the shock tuned and setup for you on the bike for definite. Makes a huge difference.

Good as a lot of new bikes are, the shocks come with a very middle of the road setup from the factory, so if you're not Mr Average it may not suit you well.
