F650 funduro & strada shock

**xr200** · #1 5 May 2008

Can anyone tell me if I can put a F650ST rear shock on a F650 Funduro to lower the seat height?

Thanks for all your help.

the best way is changing the dog bones links. I think the suspention of f650 strada and funduro are the same. (i used to have f650st)

also the front tyre size is different.

Thanks for the response.

I know about the lowering links and in my experience of using them on various Hondas they soften the spring rate, and the bike in question needs a new rear shock anyway and we thought we could kill two birds with one stone by replacing with a Strada shock.
