Easy now, it's only a 6 pack changer not an 8!....LOL

I'm afraid to know what the bike is gonna look like when it's done! LOL

Don't worry, their's no airbag to explode during service.

Hooray!

As long as you didn't touch the Flux capacitor you should be fine.

Didn't that bike debut as a naked/standard, before they decided to load it up with luggage and car parts?

Re: GL1800 Shock


All I can say is WOW! Thanks guys for a job well done. The bike has never felt so planted! What a difference! I haven't had a chance to measure sag, but was dragging a knee in the rain Sunday on it and it never budged
