Adjust Rear Shock Absorber

This procedure involves using the shock absorber preload
wrench, part no. PV- -43507, which is designed specifically for
adjusting the shock absorber preload.
The distance measured while the motorcycle is

elevated will not change, and needs only be measured once. After
the measurement and the locations from where the measurement
is taken are recorded (steps 1- -4), you will only need to perform
steps 5- -8 to correctly adjust the rear shock absorber.
Have an assistant help you complete the following procedure.
1. Elevate the rear of the motorcycle until the rear wheel
is about 1 inch (2.5 cm) off of the ground. Use an
appropriate motorcycle lift or a block of wood or steel
placed securely under the frame.
2. Measure the distance from the center of the rear axle to
the bottom of the rear fender directly above the axle.
On some models it may be easier to measure from the
top of the drive belt guard to a convenient spot on the
rear fender (along the pinstriping for example). Both
locations must be directly above the rear axle.
