Thank you so much for posting this! I plan to do the same with the same shock. I’m pretty sure you’re the first video to show the install in great deal! Looking forward to your review video.

@Atopper Год назад

🤘Glad this video is already helpful! I don’t want to give it away too much but this upgrade is a slow burner to me. It gets better every ride. The video will be up on Easter for first thought 👍

Man, just did this job with your video as a guide. Spot on for everything you said and showed. I have a 2023 and it has the larger tank. So I had to remove the tank bolts near the seat (12 mm socket) and prop it up a few inches to get the top seat bolt out. I also had difficulty getting the top part of the shock in. I lightly tapped it in with the handle end of a screw driver and a hammer worked like a charm. I read somewhere other guy used a pin and prayed it into place, which seems more elegant than my way though. Thanks for taking the time man! You would think manufacturers or sellers would make an instruction video.

@Atopper 6 месяцев назад

Heck yeah! Glad the video helped! I think there is a specialty Triumph tool to back out something to make the top slide in easier but didn’t think it was worth getting. That is interesting about the tank size making that difference. Doesn’t seem like it would to me.

Dude! Excellent Video! I just installed the same Ohlins on my 2018 and it went smooth and easy thanks to you. On the hardest part that you mentioned in your video of getting the upper bolt into the shock I did find an easy way. I just inserted a punch into the opposite side that the bolt enters and gave it a slight pry while pushing the bolt in to get it lined up and started into the shock. Went straight in with no fuss. Thanks for making videos to help us out. Much Appreciated!

@Atopper Год назад

Thank you & glad it helped! After more miles and getting it dialed in, the rear shock was a great choice. 🤘

The shock bolts come off way easier when jacking up the chasis instead of using the paddock stand. I couldn't even get the bolts out while on the paddock stand. the second I jacked up the chasis, the bolts came right out. I installed the Matris MT129-D1 shock and it's awesome! Killer bike and OHLINS. Ride safe.

Thank you & good recommendation! Glad to hear you liking the Matris 🤘

Thanks for posting just finished up swapping out my my shock on my 23 Bobber. Great guide, straight forwards and great technique . Appreciate guys like you that take your time to post videos. Thanks again

@Atopper 4 месяца назад

Glad I was able to help! Let me know what you think of the ride once you get out🤘

@kPc1x3 Месяц назад

how is it different from the stock shock ?

@Atopper Месяц назад

Adjustable preload, different spring rates, higher quality materials, better performance technology, adjustable rebound.

@kPc1x3 Месяц назад

@@Atopper thanks ! one more, hows the ride

@Atopper Месяц назад

@kPc1x3 it’s much nicer than the stock one after putting some miles on it. I’m about 210 riding weight & mine has the 36nmm spring. I think I’d like to have the 50nmm option they had at one time. That’s personal for my weight & riding style/ preference. I also have a video talking about the fork upgrade I did recently. It’s definitely worth it too. I wish I did it sooner.

Excellent! Installed Wilber successfully. Thank you!

@Atopper Год назад

Glad it helped! Just responded on the forum too lol

@michaeldao1711 Год назад

Just installed 39T rear sprocket! Can’t wait to test ride. Maybe this project next? Thanks for the great video.

@Atopper Год назад

Awesome! Excited to hear what you think of the 39t when you get out. Im enjoying the rear shock a lot but still need to get it adjusted just right to me. I hopefully with have first thoughts video up next weekend for the Ohlins.👍

@michaeldao1711 Год назад

@@Atopper Love the 39T rear sprocket ! seems like the bike pick up speed faster and a little bit louder. Now I can use 5th and 6th gear more often in the city limit.

@Atopper Год назад

Awesome! I’m glad to hear you like it! It’s surprising how much nicer it is, specially for something so cheap.

@dlmp70 Год назад

Excellent instructional video! Thank you!

Thank you!

@larry68hd11 Год назад

Thanks for the information 👍

@Atopper Год назад

Anytime 🤘

@andrewdawson5281 Год назад

Good instruction, especially with tools laid out at the beginning. Note: Torque wrenches should only be 'clicked' once.

@Atopper Год назад

Thank you & I know lol but I have OCD about it.

@dlmp70 Год назад

@@Atopperif you click the torque wrench more than once, is still maintaining the torque you set it to?

@Atopper Год назад

I don’t believe it would over torque it. I have done some experimental testing when I have more than one torque wrench. I have never had something be over torque but have had them tighten up more. Main thing that comes to mind is a bicycle stem bolts. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@andrewdawson5281 Год назад

@@Atopper As a, now retired, aeronautical engineer. I can assure you that double clicking does increase the torque. In the military (RAF) it was a frowned upon practise. You might argue that your motorcycle "ain't going flying" but...

@Atopper Год назад

Interesting, I didn’t think that it would. Thank you for that info. I will work on not clicking it more than one. 👍
