shock removal
Ok I have no clue how but my shock has blown all its guts allover the back of my bike, I have found a stocker and its on its way, My question is how do I get this thing off and hold the bike up, I only have a swingarm stand
1.remove the lower fairing
2.fix the bike to a bike lift if you have one, other vise stabilize it best you can
3. put a jack under the engine, lift up the bike intil you can feel the back it hoovering, the best way is on a lift, strap the front down and lift the bike under the engine
4. undo the bolts, holding the shock
5. remove the bolts, take out the shock
6. take steps 3 + 2
7. put on the lower fairing
it´s vital that the bike is secured, that can be done in many ways, some scaffold bars, 2 by 4´s, leant against a wall, what ever will do the trick
maby get a mate to hold the balance of the bike?
