samy Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 Hey guys, is there a specific tool available to adjust the big nuts on the rear shock? I used to always use the screwdiver and hammer trick but now i'm back into the sport i was wondering what you guys do to change the setting? There's not much room to move around in there... (it's for a 2010 Sherco with the stock shock) cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charliechitlins Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 These tools were in wider use way back when. I have several of different sizes and they're all very old. Antique motorcycle wheel bearing retainers and intake manifold packing nuts come to mind. Here in the the colonies we just call them spanners as we don't use that term for "wrenches".

samy Posted August 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 (edited) Thanks guys! This is just what i'm after! cheers Does anyone have any advice on how to adjust the rear shock's rebound screw? I can't reach it as far as i can see unless i drop the swingarm. The manual says it can be adjusted without removing it but i can't see how? cheers Edited August 29, 2011 by Samy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long skinny screwdriver past the chain and stuff does the trick on mine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
