2024 Breakout preload adjuster spring and ball
While I was installing the Kodlin lowering kit, I placed the spring and ball from the preload adjuster in a bowl so I didn't lose them. I then proceeded to knock the bowl off the table a few minutes later, and goodbye spring and ball. I went to the dealership today who informed me that I would need to buy an entire shock assembly for $500 because they don't sell the spring and ball separately. Does anyone know where I can source these parts? I think the only purpose is tactile and audible feedback when adjusting the preload, so it isn't the end of the world, but if it's something I can replace, I would like to.

Springs and ***** are available in variety packs on the likes of Amazon and such. I'd say picking up kits that cover the size range you're looking for is about your best shot.
If you know exactly what you're looking for, you can probably buy it individually from McMaster Carr.

BTW, congratulations on the Breakout. I bought a new 2023 in November. I have contemplated putting a lowering kit on mine too. I would love to hear your thoughts on Kodin and also see any pics of the bike lowered. I am in Springboro…just south of you. Do you ever go bike night at Rip Rap Roadhouse? Perhaps I could meet you there some Wednesday and see yours in person…
thank you

As for the lowering kit, it was easy to install and the only difference I had to make was increasing the preload a bit. I can’t tell the difference from stock. Feels the same to me. I can now flat foot the bike, but need to have the seat trimmed a bit as it is still a bit too wide for me.
I’m close to Rip Rap being in Tipp, and will swing over on occasion. Let me know when you head up this way.

Agreed. Great kit. Easy install. I bought the same tool on Amazon for $30 cheaper than the Kodlin tool. Worked great. Rides the same and definitely looks better.
