U can try Kayaba or Yoshi. Better stability but harsher ride.
Use gas + spring shocks rather than gas only.
U might want to try the Yamaha Lagenda shocks. Cheap & good.
Gp survey....laugh.gif

the absorber is classified with its length . 1 motor type can use only certain length absorber..

ex5 have dual setup absorber, try shift mode dulu
or last resort refill @ service dulu
save money..

go for original ex5 absorber. my family is honda ex5 enthusiast.
we got around 5 unit ex5 at home for my mum, my sis, my bro...etc.
many type they use rear absorber...aftermarket, yamaha RXZ, etc...
at last, they think original is the best
