    Thanks brother...SkyLife on his first dirt bike. Shame parents didn't teach this because of fear of this in the 80s.

    Wait so see when I ride my back starts hurting probably because it’s set for a heavier person so is it left or right I’m confused?

    • @weekendwrench

      Depends on the threads on the bike. You will know of its compressing the spring as it gets harder to turn. If it gets easier to turn you know it's removing tension from the spring.

    I thought when you lower that nut it makes it looser softer. And when you raise the nut it stiffens it. Unless my shock on this bike i just bought is blown out. The nut is all the way down and i can just push on the seat and it goes all the way down soooo soft!!!

    what should I do if the rear suspension completely dies out
    my bike is no longer standing up from the back, what should I do

    • @weekendwrench
      @weekendwrench  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Probably replace the shock or check to see if shock mounts or coils are bent or broken

    • @weekendwrench

      It doesn't bring the seat higher it makes it sag less with the riders weight on it

    How do I change the rebound?

    • @weekendwrench
      @weekendwrench  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The rebound so To set your suspension's rebound damping, find a kerb. Dial off all your rebound damping to minimum. Ride off the kerb, while standing up on the pedals, at slow to mid-paced speed. Your suspension will probably compress, quickly re-extend (past the sag point), compress again and then re-extend again.
      For the forks set a base fork rebound, start with the rebound fully closed (+). Stand next to your bike and compress the fork with your body weight. Quickly release the fork and let it bounce back. Adjust the rebound until the fork rebounds as fast as possible without causing the front wheel to 'jump' off the ground

    • @weekendwrench
      @weekendwrench  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think its a little small for you, I'd go for something bigger. I'm 5'7 as well and it will move me but it's awkward to ride regularly 😅

    how about the front ones

    • @weekendwrench
      @weekendwrench  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The front ones are operated by a valve and you should unscrew it to release built-up pressure to ensure your seals last a long time

    You’re adjusting your preload. Please don’t slam the preload on your shock for your daughter it could be very dangerous.
