  1. Factory series 2.0 PODIUM RC2 rear shock information

    I installed this on my 2015 F3S around 8000 miles ago. I never serviced this shock. Does anyone have a link to a users manual for some sort of instructs for servicing this shock. Thanks.

    Tire rack did not have the 60s. They do have the 65s. Do you think the 65s will be more comfortable than the 50s? I don’t mind a slight decrease in MPG.
