What is the best setting for motorcycle rear shock absorbers?
1 Answers
Motorcycle rear shock absorbers are typically set to position 4. Below are the adjustment methods for motorcycle shock absorbers: Motorcycle rear shock absorbers: Rear shocks usually have five settings, and the factory default is generally set to the softest position. A specialized hook wrench can be used for adjustment. The more the spring is compressed, the stiffer the shock becomes, and vice versa, it becomes softer. Motorcycle front shock absorbers: Drain the shock oil completely from the front shock absorbers, clean them thoroughly, and then add an appropriate amount of shock oil. This assumes the internal springs are not too worn. Remove the front axle, and you will find a hex bolt on the front shock absorber, which is used to adjust the shock's elasticity. If this seems too troublesome, you can simply unscrew the nut at the top of the shock absorber to add oil. However, this is not recommended. It is better to completely drain the old oil and refill with new shock oil.
