Title: another 695 suspension question Post by: Rakowski21 on March 03, 2010, 07:32:33 AM Hello to all members. I own 07 695 with that stock horrible suspension , I'm about 200 pounds with gear, and planing on getting some forks and shock, the front i would like to get forks from s2r1000 and rear shock from 01 st2 , what do you guys think?
and what about fitment of the rear shock ? the one that I'm looking at has that little reservoir attached to it and I'm worried that it may not clear with other bike parts. thanks for all the replies Title: Re: another 695 suspension question Post by: He Man on March 03, 2010, 07:48:29 AM http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=34888.0 (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=34888.0) [thumbsup]
S2R1k forks will drop right in Title: Re: another 695 suspension question Post by: WetDuc on March 03, 2010, 07:49:37 AM I think a rear shock with the remote reservoir from a st4 might have better clearance.

Title: Re: another 695 suspension question Post by: Wonked on March 03, 2010, 08:31:10 AM FYI, I'm about your size fully loaded, and Ducshop said a new stiffer spring in the back would really be all that's needed on the 695. YMMV.
