Title: Koni adjustable shocks
Post by: Sev131 on November 03, 2007, 05:53:15 PM
I've just bought 2 sets of rear Koni adjustable sport shocks (yellow) but am puzzled by the way you adjust the settings.

From what I remember there use to be a white cap that you place on top of the shock and turn either left or right.

The ones i've got seem impossible to adjust when fitted as you have to completly compress the shock, remove a rubber inside the plastic cover and turn 360degrees left or right.

Can anyone help quick as I may return them? Very dissapointed...being Koni

Cheers Bob Sev

Yes I also have these on my 131 and it is true that you have to rermove them to adjust the damping. Bit of a pain!

Yes, mine are the same. I think all the rears adjust in this way and it's only some of the fronts that were adjustable from the top (although mine are not).

Nice one chaps.

I'll think i'll keep them and fit them to my super series 3 first and see what there like.

What sort of settings have you chaps set them to?

Mine are set to the "Brain shaking, bone cracking, tooth loosening" setting  :-[ In a Series 3 Super I'd set them as soft as they go.
