Well, I can tell you that members of this very forum are responsible for this! I just bought a 929 shock off eprey and will be doing the install next week with any luck.

Thanks to everyone for posting great how-tos here. Rest assured your trials and tribulations are MUCHO appreciated!

I expect the forks will be feeling a bit anemic after the swap? How bad?

Next a set of modded forks...

I will be doing my 929 shock this weekend and may be going with some new front springs in the future. (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/fing02.gif)

Did you have one built? I was planning on fabbing my own...

Do tell!

Doing a 929 swap on my '94 as we speak. The shock went in easy but had to trim the battery/heat shield and I also had to pull the fender in order to fit the battery/heat shield back in place (that was a handful). The toughest part of the whole thing was figuring out where to mount the #1&3 coils. I had to fab a new mount for the #3 coil and relocated the #1 coil to the opposite side of the coil mount bracket.

Just got my 929 shock in. Will ride in a few days. Thanks so much for all the help.

Mine should be here today via the UPS. Going out of town on biz this weekend, so no mods for me...
