I just bought a 400DS from bikeisland.com. It had no front shocks and a replacement stem rotor and pedals....all "equivalent".
Anyway, i haven't road in many years and wont be doing anything serious so I figured I would get decent shocks and replace the rear as well.......which brings me to my question; does anyone know the length of the stock rear coilover shock? I would like to have a replacement here when the bike arrives. Also, what size front fork should I purchase....I know is is 1 1/8 but what length of travel? I really do not know much about this stuff. I was going to buy a Rock Shox Dart 3 as they were under $100 bucks.
Any advice would be appreciated.
