anyone used a set of rear shock extenders?

[OldSchoot]

Hello, I'm a big guy (250, 6'3") I recently saw a photo of me on my new Kymco Like 200i.
I'm thinking I'd like to get that scooter back up off the ground, like it would be with a 150lb fellow on it. (yes, pre-loads are adjusted)
I know it won't increase the suspension travel, but I'd like to level the scooter out. I know I cannot go more than maybe 60mm or will have issues with the center stand.
Anyone else used these....and where'd you get them (other than China)
Thanks foryo ur time.....

Don't know if shoch extenders would work. I would consider removing the shock, measuring it's length (eyelet to eyelet) and the inner diameter of the eyelets. With those dimensions, you could probably get a gas or oil shock with a better load rating off of eBay or Treatland.

I replaced the 260mm shock on my Elite 80 with one from eBay a few years back. Gave me a much more precise ride, as the original "cushion" shock would pogo on-and-off the bump stops on every mildly assertive bump or dip in the road.
