Koni adjustables
I fitted some rear koni adjustable shocks on my saff but can't find where to adjust them?

That's for the front ones ain't it, the rears have only got what looks like a retainer that a special 2 pin tool turns

Where the shinny part of the shocker goes into the shocker body there is s little button. I think you will have to remove one of the shocker bolts then twist the body of the shocker round till you feel it click.
Im sure on mine therebare 3 settings.
What I wanna know myself is which setting is soft ie do you turn the shocker left for soft or right for soft.

my rears you have to unbolt bottom of shock and hold the little botton on the collar and turn it but they are not for sofening or hardening its for when the shock wears and gets softer you can stiffen it up a click to get more life out of the shock.
