    Get them installed and post some pics yo..The good thing with Indo is that you can get them installed by any shop for diiirt cheap lol oh I miss Indo! Labour costs close to nothing

      Yeah, it is a fair price IMO, he had used it for one and half years. But it is still not blown yet. I asked a local performance store fot the price of coilover and he said it cost almost 2.5 juta rupiah for lowered spring (he did not want to mention the brand), and that is without the shocks.

      As for installing shocks, I think the price has raised since the economic crisis began. I might install it later or maybe next month coz my parents does not agree if I lowered the car since the road in Jakarta is so horrible and it is flooding season now. My parents bought this car, so I have to obey them lol. Unlike over there in Houston, I bought the CB7 there with my own money LOL.

      p.s. Ronald, how do you install the fork to the front shocks? It does not have the thing that hold/menahan the fork unlike the OEM shocks (I am afraid that it will slips) and it does not have the brake holder, too.

        just tighten it down, the force of the car sitting on it will be more than enough to keep them in.

        i doubt they would slip anyways...

        as for the brake holder, if you mean the line holder...ziptie them shits!

            ya really, zipties!

            At first I said just to use the oem forks, but I wasnt sure what you meant by not having "the hold" on the shock.

                              Yeah these N1s are definitely not the EXV series..Looks like the old skool N1s..Very OG

                              Just tell them the shocks are blown bro lol so you'll have an excuse to install these..And when they ask why it's so low, just tell them that's the ride height that comes with it, can't do anything about it hahahah DON'T tell them they're adjustable!!

                              As for the fork, I dont really understand what you mean bro, but the shock body should just slip in to the fork, and there's a bolt on the fork that you tighten so it will clamp the shock body and prevent it from slipping out..As for the brake line, just ziptie it like everyone said!!

                              Fix the lagging problem yet? It's easy bro, 3 12mm bolts on the dizzy, loosen those, spin the dizzy towards the radiator a little bit, and tighten those 3 bolts back up!! You'll feel the difference immediately!!!
