Hey dudes!I'm finding the ride a little stiff on the back end sohere is the question. The rear struts on the fxdf are supposed to be hand asjustable . I can see the holes at the bottom of the shock but I don't know what to turn them with,without bending the chrome-plated steel. O and , which way is softer suspension.If it gets to where I'm feeling sea-sick I'l adjust them back. "preciate the hep guys!
just grab em with your hand and they should turn.
always worked when i had stock shocks.
of course it would be easier if the suspension was unloaded like on a bike lift.
but you should be able to do it while its on the ground

RE: strut info
I used my hand, but would sure like to have one of those spanners. I weigh about 185 and my fiance about 98. I have the shocks set in the lowest position and the ride is fine with or without her. Probably a little w/her.
