So, i was bored today and decided to see what my 250r (86) shocks would look like on the 230.
well well well, bingo!
theyre only a half inch longer, and have fancy progressive rate springs!

the front end sits only 1.5 inches higher, and im gonna modify the upper mount to drop it back down to around the original height if the first test ride goes good.
