Will a rear shock absorber of a zx9r c1 fit a zx9r b1

Check your rear shocks. On the fender, push with your body going down. Upon releasing, your car should go up and down one time then settle. If it goes beyond or hesitate to move, you have a problem with your shocks. I think you also have a problem with the shock absorber bush. It does not matter if you have a new or old shock absorber. The lifespan of the shocks depends on the way you drive on bumpy roads.

Replace them with air shocks. I just bought mine on line for 67 dollars each compared to $100.00 + each anywhere else. Nothing else will fit. Change over kits are very expensive and require special tools to do the job let alone the time it will take to do the job.

Yes, they are a sealed unit, and once they start leaking, then you have to replace them, i would recomend replacing them with an aftermarket set, such as Koni, or KYB, there are many to choose from, cheaper than a standard set too.
The same applies if your bike has a single rear shock absorber, replacements are available.

Shock Absorber -The rear already has air shocks on the 1999 Cadillac Deville: REMOVAL & INSTALLATION Rear

1. Before servicing the vehicle, refer to the precautions in the beginning of this section.
2. Remove or disconnect the following:
   • Rear wheel Fig. 1: Exploded view of the rear shock absorber mounting
     
     
   • Negative battery cable
   • Shock absorber electrical connector from the rear suspension support, If equipped
3. Support the lower control arm with a jack to relieve the tension on the shock absorber.
4. Remove or disconnect the following:
   • Lower shock absorber mounting bolt and nut
   • Upper mounting nut, retainer, and insulator
   • Shock absorber compress by hand and remove through the upper control arm
   To install:
   
5. Position the top of the shock absorber with the insulator attached into the suspension support.
6. Install or connect the following:
   • Upper shock insulator, retainer and nut. Torque the nut to 55 ft. lbs. (74 Nm).
   • Shock absorber lower mounting nut/bolt. Torque the nut to 75 ft. lbs. (102 Nm).
   • Shock absorber electrical connector to the rear suspension support, if equipped
   • Rear wheel
   • Negative battery cable

as long as the mounting holes line up ok you shouldnt have any problems fitting these

set field number 3 = to sum of first 2

example
A1 = 5
B1 = 6
C1 = A1+B1 which will make C1 show 11
type in C1 = then move cursor (arrow key) over to A1 then type + then move cursor to B1 then hit enter - formula showing in C1 on top should show
=A1+B1 and valud in cell should show 11

with great difficulty,three bolts hold the plate that takes the top bush/mounting .jack vehicle up and support with axle stand .Another jack under rear axle ,jack this one up till cars starts to lift then fit the spring clamps and compress the spring.Next undo the 3/4 13mm headed bolts that hold the plate to the chassis ,if you can release them???---??? ,then next using a small bottle jack take the strain on the bottom of the shock absorber and then remove the bolt ,lower the jack and the top one will lower as well ,undo the two nuts on the top mounting and pull the old shock absorber out .Or what i do if back is dancing and thats to do as above to support vehicle ,support lower of shock absorber ,remove the bolt and then jack it up ,then drill a small hole about an inch from the top of the tube and then thread it ,refill the shock absorber with a heavier oil like dextron .fit a bolt into the hole with a rubber washer and its as good as new

This is a dangerous job if you do not have the proper equipment for compressing the spring that is around the rear shock. I do not recomend performing this job without the proper equipment. Unloading the spring without it compressed can cuase injury.

If you have the proper equipment this is how you do it.

7. Remove bolt attaching shock absorber to rear knuckle
8. Remove the shock absorber from the rear knuckle first when removing the shock absorber from vehicle by pushing down on the rear suspension.
