another shock question

[hon400ex]

i am having trouble understandind what the +2 +1 means in relation to my setup. it seems like most of the used shocks i look at here and on ebay are for +2 a-arms. will these still fit my 250r with stock a-arms? i weigh around 150 and ride mainly trails and might do an occansional cc race. thanks for any help guys, i have really learned alot from the site.

if its just one "+ number" that refers to the width, if there are two the first refers to the width and the second refers to forward extension.

+2 +1 means two inches wider and one inch forward :D

ok thanks. will shocks that work with +2 a-arms still work my stock a-arms?

thanks
