Hey guyz I was looking at my rear shock and noticed there is some type of adjuster coming out horizontally with numbers on it I think I read some where it changes the cycle rate its out at 4 I weigh 160 any idea what I should have it set at?
adjuster on the shock is the rebound adjuster
adjuster on the rezzie is compresion adjustment. only on 87-92 lt250r shocks.
do what they sound like. rebound is how fast it rebounds after a hit. and compresion is how stiff it is on the compresion stroke.
if the shock has never been serviced, you probably won't feel a differance in the adjustments. oil breaks down, passages become clogged.
you talkin bout the shrader valve on the rezzie?
does your shock have the bottom out bumper on the shaft. if not it needs rebuilt.
one thing to know, you never buy a shock that has one missing, just spend the cash on yours to get rebuilt
What does the bottom out bumper look like and where should it be located I'm assuming down by the linkage?
the bumper is about 2 in long and made of a rubber. should be on the shock shaft opposite the shock body.
i wasn't talking about the shrader valve. 87-90 250 shocks have a round black knob on the rezzie which is for compression adjustments. if your rezzie is just round without that, you must have a 85-86 shock.
87-90 shocks have a round black adjuster that slides in and out on the shock oppositte the shock body. thats for rebound
what year lt250 do you have?
Its an 87 ill have to check it out tomorrow
Hey guys I know this is off topic but how do I know which model carb I have when I go on the oem parts lists they have a bunch of diff ones like f g etc..
if it's the stock carb it will be an H on the parts list. depending on how clean it is there may be the last 5 digits of the part number cast into the carb current # is 01C01 but more than likely thats been superseded from 01C00
