Hey

Hey how are ya man im from melbourne i joined up to this forum yesterday i just got my crf50 last saturday i dont know much about bikes i really need a better rear shock that will handle my weight a bit better before i start doing other mods
 
Pretty limited with rear shocks .. (in australia anyway)

Depends how much you want to spend ?

you could go a fastace for around 80-150 i believe havnt looked in a while , but they arn't very flash ..

next up you could go

Works
Fox
Elka's

They can be around the 250-400 mark and are all a step above the fastace's
 
Have a look around eBay for a taky shock. Picked mine up for $120 and it holds my 95kg no worries.
 
or you can just get a heavy duty spring. im running an 80kg one and im 90kg and i do reasonably sized jumps and myn holds up great.
 
why dont you just buy a new rear shock and forks if you wanna upgrade and sell the old ones to recover some of the money?
 
if ya on a bidget id looko into the takegawa crf50 shock.they 120$??
Those links to shocks are china made crapola.
Id stay away from anythiong like that
Putting china on jap is big no no !!
Decreases value of bike and loses all coolness haha
Just save and get a fox float
