KONI 1343 Shocks 350mm/ 13.75" - Rebuilt Used
Choice of (one pair) of springs shown in photos. One is OEM Kawi, powder coated black, or you can choose the chrome ones. These KONI 1343 look like they were used very little. All internal parts were in great shape. Completely gone through and serviced with racing shock oil and are now working as new. New updated seals. Shafts are excellent showing little to no wear. One side of each lower spring mount has is worn (as shown in the photos) and is not visible from the other sides which are nice.

Feedback: I had a set of blown konis for my RD with the wrong springs for my criteria. I sent them to Rhaag and I have never been more satisfied with the new springs and valving. Unbelievable difference! Thanks Robert! Brian from Missouri.
Stamped on the bodies is the model # 76 1343 which were listed as for Kawasaki KZ in old KONI literature. As with all early KONIs, they have adjustable rebound damping, so they'll work on any MC when you want run this length shocks. For more info search for IKON's application, who took over KONI MC shocks in the 90's.

This melted crud has been thoroughly cleaned out, as explained below. Once done it will not happen again so these are set for life. Consider this when buying new or used KONIs.

+++++ A heads up to Koni buyers and owners: Old style 76 series KONIS that have not been serviced get gummed up by an internal soft rubber/ plastic rebound bumper washer (that sits on top of the piston) that dissolved into goo over the decades, and gets sucked into and plugs up the damping mechanisms. This is visible in the photo of the internal parts. So if not jammed already, they'll usually get stuck after trying to pump them. Don't force them or you can do damage including bending the shafts if you try to ride with them jammed. There's no way to resolve the issue except for complete dis-assembly and meticulously cleaning out all the old plastic crud, which takes special tools, a lot of manual work, and time. Once serviced it will not happen again as the new style top out washers are nylon and won't degrade in oil. It's imperative that any NOS and used KONIs you buy will need to be rebuilt or they most likely will be damaged. Be advised of this when considering buying any KONIs that have not been rebuilt.
After doing the cylinder porting for FMF racing for nearly 2 decades, I've now turned the craftsmanship and attention to detail to restoring and racing with Konis since '01, and am always looking to buy 76 Series and GP Konis, and also have new shafts available.
These made in Holland "Heavy Turn" 76 series KONIs have adjustable rebound dampening and instructions are included. Will try to assist with reasonable requests.
