    Anyone know where I can get a rear shock adjusting tool for my '98? My bike's tool kit didn't have one when I got it?

    Thanks,

    Mojo :cool:

    I just made my own. 8mm socket + extension + T-handle (all 1/4" drive).

    That doesn't work on the 800s since Honda took steps backward to save a few yen......

    DinnisKirk website has several lots to choose from, not sure if they'll have what you're looking for. It's called a preload shock spanner or preload adjustment tool. good luck!

    Last time I was at the local wreckers he had a big bin of old toolkits, try somewhere near you, I think it's the same as the CBR tool. $5-$10.
