It didn't look like you loosened the lock nut. They were both turning.

Put the passenger footpegs down and the 2up icon will so.

This video is a prime example of someone Not Reading the Owners Manual for their bike 😳 You can plainly see that the shock has a Double Nut/Jam Nut. You are supposed to loosen the outside one first and then turn the other to make your adjustments. After you are done you turn the other nut up against it again. To do this properly you need two wrenches. That Jams the nuts together so they don't turn. By turning both at the same time you are destroying the fine threads on the shock. And you don't jack up the bike to relieve the pressure you jack the body weight up off the rear tire🤣 The Red knob is to adjust the Rebound on the shock. It does Not make it pack more weight and has Nothing to do with the 2up icon on the instrument cluster 👍 What turns on the 2up icon is deploying the rear foot pegs. This also will only allow the bike to operate in Eco and Normal Mode the bike Will Not go into Sport or Rally Mode when riding 2up. And yes my wife and I have owned our Ryker Rallies since spring of 2019 and you would be Absolutely Amazed at what someone can learn if you sit down with a cool drink and Read the Owners Manual front to back 😂🤣👌👍

James, on the rebound adjustment....whats the "best" way to determine it's "proper" adjustment...in your opinion. Thanks for the above clarification.

@@douglasmontgomery6315 It depends on the road conditions and how much stuff you are hauling. I normally have mine on 2 if I'm just commuting around town. If we are loaded and running pavement I bump it up. If we are just running around on the logging and mountain roads I might run 1 to soften the bumps. It's kind of personal preference and you just have to play with it.

It shows two up when you let down the pegs

Is there any reason you can't just max out the rear shock even if it's past the 2 up mark, just to have a stiffer ride?

How has your comfort seat held up? And is it much more comfy? Regards from Sweden

When you ride two up, is the back like a inch or two from the fender. My shock is already at the 5/8 mark and we also at a combined weight of 450.

@Backroadxplorers 3 жыл бұрын

Yes and we would bottom out when hitting a bump

@grampsaggyballs 3 жыл бұрын

@@Backroadxplorers thank you. We also bottom out when we hit a real big bump. Guess I will have to buy a better rear shock. Your video was very helpful.

Which part are you turning ? The left or right “turn piece” and which direction do I turn if I need to tighten? I’ve tried everything I feel and can’t get the thing to budge.

@jamesglenn520 2 жыл бұрын

Did you get it figured out? There are two nuts and you need two wrenches to get them to separate.
