Description: From the 800 Drifter manual, instructions for the removal and re-installation of the rear (mono)shock.


The book says:


- Remove the pipes, storage box and tool kit container
- Using a jack raise the rear wheel off the ground
- Squeeze the brake lever slowly and tie off with a band... this is a must as the bike may fall over when the shock is removed.
- Remove the lower shock bolt
- Remove the Tie-Rod bolt
- Remove the upper shock bolt
- Remove the shock.


Reinstall -


- pack the rocker arm needle bearings with grease
- install the shock so the spring adjust bolt is to the left side.
- tighten - Shock bolts - 43ft-lbs, Tie-rod nuts - 43ft-lbs


Note: the stock shock is filled with nitrogen, so don't burn it without releasing the gas... it might explode. Of course, if the shock is still good you might want to sell it or donate it.
