1979 Honda CB650 · Rear Shocks & Mounts Buying guide
Use the specifications and package inventory for the exact shock set chosen. A shared CB650 application does not establish that separately listed rubber or hardware parts service every replacement shock.

The product photos show an upper eye and lower clevis. The black 335 mm and chrome-shrouded 336 mm sets have those nominal eye-to-clevis lengths. The exact clevis reference used for the stated length is not documented here; obtain that reference from the supplier before comparing measurements. The shrouded design is described as based on the 1972–76 CB750K, without a claim of exact CB650 cosmetic reproduction.
Rubber set 73-0093 contains two pieces replacing reference 52484-292-000. The separately listed nut replaces 90309-315-000, and the washer replaces 90521-292-000; those items are sold individually. Compare the selected shock’s supplied parts before adding separate hardware.
The listings state four positions for the black set and five for the chrome set, but neither gives a spring-rate value or a rider-and-luggage load rating. Those records do not support a capacity comparison; confirm suitability for your intended load before choosing between them.
Confirm that separately. Rubber set 73-0093 and both shock sets list the CB650, but their records do not establish that the rubber set fits the mounting joints of either replacement shock. Match the fitted shock and rubber dimensions rather than using shared motorcycle coverage as proof.
