ISSUE FIXED! MY SUBFRAME WAS OUT MY 3MM COMPARED TO SAME YEAR MODEL CRF50.
SWAPPED SHOCK FOR A KITACO HD REAR SHOCK from 50stunt.



So i have a 2014 Crf50f that I'm turning into a stunt bike.
( build vid will come on my channel ariderslife)


Problem. New Rear Shock doesn't fit Stock 2014 crf50.
Pic Of Shock:
Screen Shot 2014-07-07 at 9.26.55 pm.png

Shock Model:
FASTACE REAR SHOCK - BDA-01AR
250LB spring.
26cm c-c (260mm)

Problem: Shock Rubs on Subframe,
Tried: Mounted upside down
Tried: Wound shock in to see if it remedies the issue.

Suspected resolution:

Suspect i received the wrong model Shock?
Suspect 2014 crf50 subframe is different from previous years.

Extra Info
My bike is 100% stock 2014 crf 50f.

I'm now waiting for the Shop to call me back with a good reason as they claim they have fitted these to stock crf50's...

i have seen on a couple of members' bikes here they had to spread the rear subframe
will see if i can find the thread
 
The taky shock is also a LOT better.

I would return that one and just run the taky.
