Re: [ST] Aftermarket rear shock

[Bryce <bster13@xxxxxxxxx>]

The preload isn't remotely adjustable, that's true,
but I find with the Penske Preload adjustment tool and
the orientation of the shock on the RS it's really no
trouble at all.  The collar moves smoothly, the tool
does not slip out, and the tool is long enough and
fits in a position in which you can get to it easily
on the bike.  (Unlike most OEM shock I've tried to
adjust...grumble...grumble)
