Any vids on replacing F3 Ltd rear shock?

Anyone have a link to an install video to replace the rear shock. Thanks

Hopefully someone will be along shortly with a video, as that always makes a process easier to understand, justhere. It’s a fairly simple process though, made even easier with 2 sets of hands (but not mandatory).

Remove the bottom shock nut.

Lift the F3 Ltd (under the rear frame, not under the shock bolt), until the wheel is just touching the ground.

Using minute lift adjustments (we are talking millimetres of movements here) up and down, find the point where the bottom bolt slides out easily.

Remove top bolt.

Insert new shock and top bolt.

Use the shock adjustment above, to insert the bottom bolt. Tighten bottom nut.

I did this on my ‘16 F3-L and it was fairly straightforward. I just did it on my ‘21 RT-L, and it was a right pain due to body panel removal and access to bolts.
