    I have some spare parts that I thought would benefit the 750.
    I swapped the wider 800 wheel on my machine over the weekend.
    I was looking at eventually using the 800's low-mount hardware to reposition the rear caliper (if possible).

    I have a rear shock also. Is the 800 shock interchangeable with the 750? It seems to be similar....spring preloading is different and it has an external dampening adjuster.
    I was just wondering if it would be an upgrade/better ride quality.

    Thanks,
    Gene.

    I think total length would be more of a factor also whether the adjusters line up with access holes in the frame.
