    HEL braided brake lines and maybe swap out your rear shock for a zx636 rear shock. Brakes and handling are the best mods to do.

    Yeah I've been finding that. The rear shock is springy as you like - needs something a bit stiffer! Is that the best one to go for with out requiring any modifications to the bike or the shock?

    Yeah zx6 or zx10. From memory when I was looking into doing it the only thing you need to do is relocate the rectifier.

    I didn't end up modifying mine as I just bought an entire zx10r so I decided to leave the z750 suspension alone.

    Not exactly true..you will need to trim the lower shock bush or use a zx636 bush if using the zx636 shock..and yes, rectifier needs relocating.

    Hey guys, just spoke to Bournemouth Kawasaki who have been sorting my bike after the little incident! They said the rear shock is worn out which is why it's like a pogo stick at the back.

    What's everyone's thoughts on the best option? I'm using the bike for commuting (50 miles a day) mainly.

    I haven't got the knowledge for relocating the rectifier, and I imagine the shop will charge out of the ass for doing so...!

    Thanks in advance! Jon.
