1984 Honda CB650SC Nighthawk · Rear Shock Absorbers Buying guide

Compare the mounting specifications before the finish

The two selected sets provide the same body-listed length and preload-position count, with different finishes. Check the required mounting dimensions and intended load before treating those shared headline specifications as the whole comparison.

Compare eye-to-eye length and mounting dimensions

Current product photos show an eye at both ends of the black/chrome and all-black sets. Both are listed at a nominal 325 mm eye-to-eye. The black/chrome set has chrome springs and end cap; the other set is all black. Compare mounting-eye widths, bolt diameters and clearance as well as length before ordering.

Account for the supplied fitting pieces

Each set lists bushings, inserts, washers and a preload wrench. The chrome-spring option has a black body with chrome springs and end cap; the all-black option has black body, springs and end cap. Check any additional hardware requirements separately from those listed contents.

Buying questions

Can I compare passenger-and-luggage capacity from the four preload positions?

The listings do not give a numerical spring rate or a rider-and-luggage load rating for either set. Four positions are stated, but no capacity comparison is established by those records. Confirm suitability for your intended load before ordering.

Does the 325 mm specification confirm the fit of both mounting ends?

The length does not provide the mounting widths or bolt diameters, which the all-black listing asks buyers to compare. Those dimensions are not supplied in either record; obtain them before choosing shocks for altered or unidentified mounts.
