Adjusting the rebound on Sachs shock??

andirsv1 · Oct 21, 2009

Alright guys,

Can anyone tell me how to take some rebound of the (yellow) Sachs shock on my '03 Tuono?? There is a knurled "nut" at the bottom of the shock but which way should i turn to take some off?? When bouncing the rear it is WAY to slow to come back up!!!

Cheers.............:thumbup

I believe all the suspension screws work clockwise (inwards) = harder and anticlockwise (outwards) = softer

Cheers buddy.............yeah think i've sussed it!! It's because it stis at the bottom i wasn't sure if it was clockwise from top or bottom!! Unscrewed it anticlowise as you look at it and is loads better................................:thumbup

I have a Sachs shock on my RSV, and adjusting the rebound is done by the plastic ring at the bottom of the shock. From underneath, screw it clockwise to increase the damping, and anti-clockwise to reduce it. For my bike, it's supposed to be 20 clicks out from fully in, so I guess the Tuono will be the same (although I prefer 19, otherwise it feels like a pogo-stick to me.lol).
