While doing some work on my K over the past week i did a search on adjusting the Hagon rear shock.

When i was on their site i noticed all the pics of the shocks had the coil adjuster nut to the top and the compression adjuster to the bottom.

Mine is mounted the other way around(was like that when i bought the bike) The Hagon sticker is upside down too.

Just wondered if anyone had one of these or had any advise. I will try and take a pic tonight and post it up.

I had thought that and when Charlie had a look on sunday he commented about the sticker too.

Sometimes not to sure with some shocks as they can run either way(talking from an off road comp truck experience).

Thanks K i will turn it over and see how it goes.

Col They probable typed out a reply but the mental picture of the fishnets most likely stopped them from hitting the send button
