    Fitting '05 636 Shock

    I received my shock in the mail last week and would like to get it ready be put on the bike. I was curious on what specifically i need to mill down or modify in order for it to fit without having to hammer it on and possibly tweak something. Any info/pics would be a great help, thanks.

    Mods Required: The '05 636 shock will NOT directly bolt in. The lower legs on the 636 shock are 2mm closer together, and there is a spacer inside the shock linkage which will not fit into it. Need to have 1mm milled out of the inside of each shock leg to get it to bolt in.
