Need rear suspension replacement for my Apache!! - xBhp.com : The Global Indian Biking Community

apacherenator · 11-27-2009, 01:20 AM

I am planning to change the rear suspension of my Apache 150. My bike has done 63k kms and I badly need a new set of rear shocks. But I am not happy with the stiff suspension setup of the stock Apache.I would like to change to a softer suspension set-up like that of a Pulsar's. So which one would be best for me. Will the Pulsar rear shocks be a direct fit, or will i need any mods to be done to fit it??...any other good options available??...please also quote the price if you know it..

P.S: I don't mind if the handling takes a beating. i can manage.

Well, if my knowledge is right I don't think that the Pulsar's gas shocks will fit directly.

You can hunt for other brands in the open market. That's the best option.
