GSA SE Rear Shock

Chaps

Simple question. Has the standard GSA SE rear shock got a hydraulic preload adjuster?

Cheers

YES....they all have

Sorry....I also meant a remote preload adjuster.....

I have just been sent (having bought) one, that has a manual preload and twist rebound adjuster, both on the shock body itself. I think that it is a front one, but wanted to be absolutely sure.

Thanks

All the rears have remote hydraulic pre load.

Surely you can tell the difference between the front and rear?

Just in case you don't...

Rear has an 'eye' top and bottom
Front has a threaded stud at the top

If it's an after market rear it may or may not have a remote pre load.

The one I have been sent has an eye top and bottom, but is the wrong shape in my view to be a standard shock......

I'm going to post a 'guess what this is off' on a separate thread....

Cheers for the very quick replies.....

Why not post the pic on this thread? ....... I'd be bored with another

Looks a bit long & skinny for a rear shock...

 

[Pete D]

It does indeed......

I'm stumped - clearly BMW.....and I would guess from something with a paralever....

Result.....rear shock off a 100GS....
