Shock Installation

[hottech]

I bought a pair of stock shocks to replace my stocks off my 2004 R1150R. I know that ?ûhlins USA has a damper control and rebound adjustments that need to be made after installion. Is ther any adjustments to my stock Skowas that need to be made or are they just a plug and play stock shock?

Plug'n'Play...

If there is a little screw adjustment on the side of the bottom eye, that's rebound damping, set it to LIGHTLY seated and then 1/4 to 1/2 turn out. "Out" is softer; more than 1/2 turn out makes no difference (out of range).

Regarding the rear shock, the little r1150r owners manual says 1-2 turns out on the screw adjustment for solo riding and less for two-up.
