RE: [ST] Shock Removal Directions - RS

["Ken Mitchell" <kp.mitchell@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Stan,

Support the bike with the centerstand if you have it. I don't, so I put it
on (uneven) blocks at the attachment points of the centerstand. You'll have
to remove the tank for access, plus the seat (obviously), side panels, and
do it with the rear wheel off.

It's easy after having done it 3 times to get the shock the right length.
Grrr.....

Anybody out there with experience replacing the rear shock?  Directions,
suggestions, tips and best practices are all appreciated.

Right now I'm using the old Pit Bull in order to remove and replace my rear
tire ......hmmm,  maybe it's better to use the centerstand in order to
unload the swingarm completely........... must concentrate...

Thanks,
Stan
