Rear shock absorber adjusters
Monster 821 / 821 Dark / 821 Stripe
The rear shock absorber has external adjusters that
enable you to adjust the setting to suit the load on the
motorcycle.
The adjuster (1) located on the LH side, at the top
connection holding the shock absorber to the engine,
adjusts the rebound damping.
Turn adjuster (1) clockwise to stiffen the damping, or
counter clockwise to soften it.
Ring nuts (2) and (3), located in the shock absorber
lower side, adjust the external spring preload.
To adjust the spring preload, loosen the bottom ring
nut (3). SCREWING or UNSCREWING the top ring nut
(2) will INCREASE or DECREASE the preload.
Once the spring preload is set, tighten the bottom
ring nut (3).
