575 shock spec.

[yellowperil575]

Hi all

I'm upgrading the shock on my 575 (2004) to a Fox, as the 5th Element on it has blown again.

What stroke length does it need?
Is an RP23 worth the extra over an RP2?
Which level of tune is best for the 575?

Thanks
James

7.875” (200mm) eye-to-eye / 2” (51mm) stroke.

My RP23 has minimal tune level and the 3 pro-pedal settings vary enough that this is just right.
I don't know what the stock Yeti settings are, probably medium.
I would've thought the RP23 is definitely worth the extra as you can easily tune the shock to how you prefer the bike to feel. With RP2 Pro-pedal is either on or off, so you'd have to get a revavle if you're not happy with the pre-set tune level.

Hope this helps!
