How do I adjust the rear shock preload. Service Manual doesn't say (at least not that i found).
I see what appears to be 2 "nuts" on the threads at the bottom of the shock (closest to tire). I am assuming the bottom nut (the thick one), is the tightener, and the thinner one on top is what determines how much preload is applied. I don't know.
If what I said is true, which way do I turn them. I assume it is lefty loosy, righty tighty. So do I turn the bottom nut counter clockwise to loosen it, and then turn the top nut clockwise to increase preload, then turn the bottom nut until it is snug?
Please help here... please... My bike rides literally like a boat through bumps.
Also what size spanner wrench do I need, or if I use a screwdriver how much risk is there to damaging the components? I really don't want to damage, or mare.
