KYB K-ELITE SERIES PIGGYBACK REAR TWIN SHOCKS (305MM+10MM) FOR YAMAHA NVX 155 / HONDA SH150 ITALIA - MATTE BLACK
Hello Boss! When riding sporty maxi-scooters like the Yamaha NVX 155 or premium models like the Honda SH150 Italia, the stock rear suspension can reveal limitations over time. A floating rear-end feeling during quick acceleration or tight cornering, combined with harsh bottoming noises over speed bumps, can compromise riding comfort.
Understanding your desire to optimize riding performance, Monkey89 presents: KYB Honda SH150 Italia / Yamaha NVX 155 Rear Shock Absorber (305mm) K-Elite Black - Genuine Japan Brand. Belonging to the high-performance 2W Performance series, this piggyback reservoir twin shock set in an aggressive Full Black finish delivers enhanced chassis stability, allowing you to ride with confidence.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS & ADJUSTABILITY
REAL-WORLD PERFORMANCE & BIKER BENEFITS
Translating technical features into real-world riding benefits, the Monkey89 engineering team highlights why the K-Elite Black is a valuable upgrade:
-
16-Step Rebound Damping Adjustment System: Unlike the basic K-Alpha series, the K-Elite features an adjustable Rebound dial under the shock foot to control shaft extension speed. When riding at higher speeds or cornering tightly, precise Rebound control helps keep the rear tire planted, reducing floating sensations and mitigating rear-end swaying.
-
Threaded Spring Preload Customization: The threaded collar allows easy adjustment of spring preload to match actual luggage weight. Whether commuting solo or carrying a passenger, the high-tensile spring absorbs impacts efficiently, minimizing harsh bottoming-out noises and frame thumps.
-
Flexible Length Adjuster: Extends shock length from 305mm up to +10mm. Monkey89 recommends increasing height by +5mm to +8mm to slightly boost ground clearance without over-extending the shock stroke.
-
Mono-Tube Design with Free-Piston Technology: The internal floating piston keeps high-pressure nitrogen gas completely separated from the hydraulic oil inside the piggyback reservoir. During continuous heavy-duty stroke cycles, oil aeration is effectively prevented, ensuring consistent damping performance even on long rides in hot weather.
FITMENT & COMPATIBILITY
Monkey89 ensures clear fitment specifications so you can choose with confidence:
-
For Yamaha NVX 155 (all model years): The 305mm length matches OEM geometry. Direct bolt-on fitment with ample clearance for the piggyback reservoir, requiring no fairing modifications, maintaining the clean sporty look of your bike.
-
For Honda SH150 Italia (SH Ý): The top eyelet and bottom clevis mount align with the SH Ý frame and engine casing points. The 305mm length offers an ideal lowered seat height solution for riders seeking easier ground reach and better city maneuverability.
-
Installation Position: Symmetric twin shock setup at the rear suspension points. Genuine product delivered brand new in full box from Monkey89.
