Channel lock plyers on those notches at the bottom of the spring dude. That will do it.

Not to hijack a thread......
but I have a question related to the front pre-load.
If my machine wants to consistently pull straight on lower speed turns rather than pull me through turns, should I stiffen or soften my front shock pre-load ?

 

[beastlywarrior228]

Soften but sounds like more of a tire issue, what pressure are you running

 

[wsar10]

not exactly sure yet......... they actually seem low, and if I had to guess based on experience I would say 3.5-4lbs max.

Backstory) This thing just followed me home two weeks ago, and with working full time, running a business and renovating our home, I have not really gone over it. I have just taken the kids for a few rides so far. It's quite cold here in PA currently and probably wont get a chance to go over this thing till it warms up a bit.

Same problem with turning. Tires are really firm

I fixed my shocks I just need to find someone selling a carb bowl

 

[88WarriorBoy]

why do you need a carb bowl ?

 

[mudbogginsouthernboy]

mine is cracked and in vary bad shape.

If you can't find a bowl
Try cleaning that one real good and jb weld it.
Might work
