Muzzys did have such a thing at one time called a shock travel limiter. Dont know if it is rubber or not. Give them a call.

Be very carfull trying to get that piece out. Last one I tried to pull apart I ended up getting covered in oil and coating the wall and ceiling in my garage. LOL

Wee...what is the mystery here? You are a big guy. The stock shock has inadequate damping and preload for someone your size...you know this.
Cheap = revalve. Best = new shock. Your new arm isn't going to make the suspension behave.

$350 to $400 for a revalve and new spring, depending where you send it. Good aftermarket shocks start at around $600 and go way up from there.

I need to lower the rear more with the catalyst tail, did NB have a tigertail? I guess I need to ask him what he had with his 6" tail, or do you know?

it isn't exactly a tiger tail. i think he made it himself

Wheelie, you dont really have quite enough spring or valving. Landing wheelies will make one rub and make you think it is the power squat causing it.

I did have a very long wheelie, but it is to soft for my weight, and when I go longer it will be even softer, getting a price on a Pen$ke shock right now

800+ for a Penske, 300 for a Litz revalve. You still have the busa spring?

I think it would be the right spring for you if you go 8-10 over.
