⚙️ TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS & ADJUSTABILITY
🚀 REAL-WORLD PERFORMANCE
-
🛡️ Smooth Urban Commuting & Cost Optimization: The K-Alpha line aims for ultimate practicality by eliminating unnecessary, complex hydraulic damping adjusters for street riding. You get a premium pair of high-performance shocks at a highly economical price, serving as a perfect replacement for technologically inferior stock shocks.
-
🎩 Elegant Black Finish – Stand Out Subtly: Completely different from the vibrant red version, SKU RG210074 features a rugged, mysterious black tone. This is the perfect accent for riders who prefer a minimalist, mature, and luxurious style, seamlessly blending with the scooter's overall tough aesthetic.
-
💨 Mono Tube & Free-Piston Technology: The free-piston system inside the piggyback reservoir completely isolates the hydraulic fluid from the high-pressure Nitrogen gas. This prevents the oil from aerating (foaming) or overheating during continuous operation, keeping the shocks stable, maximizing tire traction, and delivering ultra-smooth steering control.
-
🔧 Spring Preload Adjustment: Easily adjust the spring's stiffness/softness to suit your payload. For gentle solo city rides, loosen the preload for maximum plushness. When carrying a pillion or touring luggage, simply use the provided tool to increase spring compression, firmly supporting the rear end and completely eliminating bottoming out or rear-wheel wobbling.
-
📐 Length Adjuster Feature: Allows you to flexibly extend the shock body from the standard 330mm up to an additional 10mm (+10mm). This feature helps you proactively adjust ground clearance or create a balanced riding posture according to personal preference.
🛠️ COMPATIBILITY & FITMENT
-
For Honda Airblade 150: The product is perfectly compatible regarding the dimensions of the bottom Clevis mount and top Eyelet mount. The standard 330mm shock length is an absolute match with the stock shock specifications.
-
For Yamaha Xmax 300: This pair of shocks fits perfectly into the scooter's mounting points thanks to the ample wheel well space available for piggyback shocks. The 330mm length specification (which can be raised to 340mm via the length adjuster) will be slightly lower than the Xmax 300's stock shock length (350mm). This is a massive plus for riders who want to slightly lower the rear seat height for easier, more stable foot-down stops at traffic lights in the city, without losing the scooter's commanding stance.
