Rear shock removal
ok so Im replacing my rear shock...anything special I need to do?
|
RE: Rear shock removal
if its stock for stock then not really. just two bolts and thats it. just make sure the frame is held up or it will fall down when either bolt is taken out.
|
RE: Rear shock removal
how should I do that?...I dont have bike stands...maybe just a car jack on the subframe?
|
RE: Rear shock removal
ok I got it off fine....now just have to put the f4i back in!
|
RE: Rear shock removal
on an f4 or f4i shock should the end with the tube for the resevior be at bottom or top?
|
RE: Rear shock removal
ok so anyone planning on swapping an f4 or f4i shock......you will need a new kickstand.......my seat height is so much higher that the rear wheel could easily slip out while on the stock kickstand.....if you are taller like me this feels much better as far as comfortablility...allthough i dont know how the handling will be....but it looks sick..the tail sticks much higher

on an f4 or f4i shock should the end with the tube for the resevior be at bottom or top? Can you adjust the ride height? You don't want that shock to be too long,you'll tuck the front too easily. |
RE: Rear shock removal
yeaI beleive you can...but you need one of those little tools to do it....which I dont think I have...but I am plannin on lowering it as much as possible.

RE: Rear shock removal
well unless theres another way to do it...I mean theres that little black ring at thetop of the shock that is numbered, andseems toadjust the height...?
|
RE: Rear shock removal
That's the preload adjuster, it will adjust the sag but that's not a true "ride height" adjustment, it'll just bottom out easier... That's my guess, I'm not a suspension expert though [&:]
