Looking for a hyosung rear shock gt125r, Are there any cheaper alternatives or other rear shocks that are compatible? Suzuki etc? Just went for mot and need a few things, mainly another job to get the rest of repairs 😆

Hyosung GT650 shock fits bolt-in , and look at ebay USA (loads of 650 parts there)
You would rather use a 650 shock because its made stronger than the 125 ones and sits a “tiny bit” higher (meaning the bike lifts up its back end a little more)
Also , check your bearings under dog bones where shock links to , because sometimes it is the bearing at the bottom that rattles the shock!

It is too short , it will bottom out the bike likely. Needs to be around 320mm but spring may be too wide and will scrape the swingarm. Has to be Hyosung YSS (it is much slimmer)

Why should it not be “right” ? Did you try YSS? I only have good experience…on other bikes…
