  • Rear Shock

    I was wondering if the rubber bumper on the rear shock could be replaced and if so what'sthe part number? . It's located inside the coil and the shock shaft runs through it. I can't seem to find it. I'm not even sure if the shock comes apart to replace it. Also is that bumper suppose to spin freely? Shock works fine even for 2 up riding its just that rubber bumper is falling apart.
    Thanks for the help,
    Matt

      Ok thanks. Where do get one of these shocks? I know you said it's a gold wing shock but modified so I'm assuming someone custom makes these and sells them?

    Looks like its already leaking. I'd replace it.

      Roadwing is definitely the way to go. Good ride and adjustable. I did the electronic setup and didn’t really like it. I ended up going with a manual rap instead.

      This is one of the top 3 things you can do to improve your Roadstar.

          Roadwing isn't a company it is a modified goldwing shock to fit our roadstar. Contact smokescreens (Jason) here on the clinic. Send him a personal message on this site. Look at the top of your screen for the message tab.

              If you want to spend $1000 it's a great choice lol. Roadwing is just as good and about $300

                Thanks LugNut. Is the roadwing a direct bolt in option with dial settings change.

                Wonder how much to ship to OZ.

                Will check when time comes.

                  If you get one already converted us a direct bolt in. You want to get a manual remote adjustable pressure knob system. Makes it very nice.
