Description
Stage6 Shock Riser SSP adjustable Piaggio / Gilera / Aprilia / Vespa chrome, 4-point adjustable CNC-machined suspension riser for customizing mopeds / scooters.
Top quality CNC-milled aluminium riser by Stage6, with 4 height settings to choose from. Designed by Stage6's styling division SSP. The bolts are countersunk, for a clean, appealing finish. The rear end of your vehicle will be raised, the front end will be lower than the tail. Seating position and riding style become sportier, and the bike looks awesome!
Available in different colours.
Note: equipping some models with this riser kit means you'll have to use a side stand. In rare cases, the original air filter might have to be replaced by a smaller one.
Shock absorber Jack Up Kits
On 50cc scooters and motorcycle, the shock is often raised for aesthetic reasons. However, extending shock length does not only affect seat height and looks of your vehicle.
Advantages of height extensions
Raising the rear of a two-wheeler without changing the front suspension changes the vehicle geometry and thus also performance and handling.
If the rear end is higher than the front wheel, the result is a more closed caster angle. As a result, maneuverability in curves becomes better, but stability at high speeds is reduced.
For motorcycles and motocross bikes, there are lowering kits for both the rear and the front wheel. At the rear, the linkage is replaced, and at the front, spring seats and spacers in the fork must be replaced.
On many models, of course, you can also replace the entire shock absorber to change the length and spring travel.
