Hi All, does any one know where I can get a shock absorber for a f650 st
1997, cos mine as just snapped in half :tears. thx
 
Have you checked the links on the forum for spare parts suppliers?

John Sherlock, Motobins, Motoworks.

Or a new one from www.hagon-shocks.co.uk

Or, I've recently dismantled a 1997 Funduro, but do not think that the shock would fit an ST (not a very nice example anyway).

Or have a look on www.f650.co.uk
 
What snapped?

The bottom fixing 'lugs' on mine broke
(see www.sibirskyextreme.com/2009/08/page/2/ about a third way down)
The Haynes book and BMW stickers on the unit said nothing was serviceable.

Those wonderful chaps in Komsomolovsk (and their mates in the military aircraft engineering workshops) built a new part from steel and fitted it. It then got me through the toughest ride of my life - and then 5,000 miles home.

The difference is a fitter or a repairer.
