Title: St2 shock reservoir mount
Post by: Spdu4ia on September 16, 2016, 05:38:28 PM
Wanted to let everyone know I found a clean way to mount up the reservoir when I swapped my shock on my monster 695 to a ST2 shock with remote reservoir.

Off-road racers use this mount to mount the reservoir to the shock itself so took some measurements and sure enough if you mount it backwards it fits the frame perfect!

Thanks  [thumbsup]

That's what my reservoir is - I might get two to make sure it's stable and secure...

Thats like a "Toomuchmoney" sticker.

Very tidy bracket. Noticed the two bolt clamp which would stop it swiveling if the bolts came loose.

"Tidy bracket"  [laugh] It broke twice - steel and too long. Welded again now, but I'm looking for other solutions. Maybe spdu4ia's find is it...

TOOMUCHMONEY .... yes

I thought about getting two but after putting the one on (lock tight on the bolts of course) it's solid I can almost pick the bike up by it without it even rotating.

I wrapped the frame with some electrical tape before clamping it for extra protection too.
