Many Honda CX monoshock conversions are made using non-compliant shock absorbers from other motorcycles. Shock absorbers with a spring that is too soft, not suitable for CX models, which makes their use dangerous. YSS has therefore developed a mono shock absorber specific to the CX400 and CX500: the TCFX-MZ-366-280-TRL .
Honda CX models are not designed as single shock motorcycles. It is therefore imperative, to ride in perfect safety , to only fit a model manufactured exclusively for them. The YSS kit is simple, solid and safe. The forces are distributed to the strongest points of the swingarm.
The TCFX-MZ-366-280-TRL mono shock absorber kit is developed by Suspension-Store, official distributor and custom shop for the YSS suspension. This kit is intended for Honda CX400 and CX500 models.
The base plate and top mount must be welded to the rear swingarm and frame . It is recommended to use a professional to carry out the welding. The placement of the base plate is the exact shape of where it needs to be soldered.
The shock absorber has a length of 280 mm . By varying the location of the top mount, you can choose your own ride height. However, it is recommended to stay close to the standard geometry.
