Hi - anyone know if its possible to reduce the stroke of an RP23 - so go from 200 x 57 to 200 x 50 - with internal spacers or something?
cheers

    Mojo do offer a service for this IIRC but it is not a simple spacer change,

    Hi yes, totally do able, you do need to regas and oil the shock though to after stripping the shock to fit the spacer on to the damper shaft.
    I offer this service, drop me a mail, maybe a bit slow replying as on holiday this week but back in the workshop first thing Monday.

    I'd be really interested to know how you can go 200/57 to 200/50 As surely that requires a longer can?

    Or are we saying 200/57 down to 193/50 which makes sense.
