HD-94700-52C | Spanner wrench |
The rear shock absorber springs can be adjusted for the weight the motorcycle is to carry. There is a spanner wrench for this purpose.
Warning! Both shock absorber adjuster plates must be adjusted to the same position. Not having the springs adjusted to the same length could adversely affect handling. This may lead to a loss of control of the motorcycle and could result in death or serious injury.
The rear shock absorber springs can be adjusted to five positions to compensate for various loads.
- For heavy loads, the springs should be compressed.
- For lighter loads the springs should be extended.
See Figure 1-41. To adjust the rear shock absorber, turn spring adjusting cam to desired position with SPANNER WRENCH (HD-94700-52C). Both spring adjusting cams must be adjusted to the same position.
