Static sag on the rear
Posted: Wed Jul 28, 2010 8:29 pm
Hi Guys,
I've replaced the rear shock on my zxr, but theres no static sag now. The spring has a (roughly) 20mm plastic/nylon collar on, where as the original shock didnt.

I guess I should remove the plastic collar from the shock, as theres plenty of threads to wind the preload on when its not there? What should the static sag be? about 5-10mm?
(this is my first mono-shock bike so I've never dealt with anything like this on the rear)
