SUSPENSION UNIT
A rear suspension unit (shock absorber) listed in the swinging fork and chainguard section, tied to 1968 in our catalog records.
This part number covers the rear suspension unit shown in the swinging fork and chainguard section of the parts book. On these motorcycles the rear shock absorbers mount between the swinging fork and the frame, taking the bumps out of the road so the back wheel doesn't just follow you have to. The catalog only shows this listing appearing twice, both times tied to the 1968 model year, so that's the extent of what we can confirm from our records.

The manufacturer tag on file says Renold, but Renold is a chain maker, not a supplier of suspension units, so that tag is almost certainly wrong for this listing. We don't have a partner description or additional catalog detail to lean on here, so we can't tell you material, thread size, or damping specs on this one.
If you're trying to match this to a shock absorber currently on your bike, give us a call with what you've got in hand or a photo of the part and we'll confirm before you order.
We've never carried this one. Tell us what you're after and we'll go looking — you'll get a price and photos before you commit to anything.
