Hagon rear shocks

Do you use one?

I bought one recently and can't see how they're adjustable.

There's an allen key fitment which I assumed adjusted preload.... I can't move it by hand... & didn't have Hercules on call... so I left it. But it's bottoming out and wallowing big time in 120 sweepers.

I can't live with that kind of crap.

The OE on my last zzr 1100 lasted 40K, I stupidly junked this one at 25. Now I have a replacement that bounces like your mum. I aint impressed.

Any of you new yanks have a clue?

Never used one but from the looks of it on their web site preload is by a threaded ring.
Damping is done by the allen wrench. Page says rebound and compression is linked to the one adjuster.

Cheers... I figured so.

I must have a duff one... [from ebay]... it's stuck solid with zero adjustment.
