Many Honda CX monoshock conversions are made from non-conforming shock absorbers, sourced 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 single 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 mount 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 monoshock kit is developed by Suspension-Store, official distributor and custom shop for YSS suspension. This kit is intended for the CX400 and CX500 models of the Honda brand.
The base plate and top mount must be welded to the rear swingarm and frame . It is recommended to go through a professional to carry out the welding. The placement of the base plate has the exact shape of where it needs to be welded.
The shock 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.

- length: 280 mm (+5/-5 mm length adjustment);
