Suzuki Bandit 1200 shock adjustment tool, where can I get one?

**Vinz0r** · 3rd May 2013, 00:23

Mm tried a C spanner that mate uses for his coilovers but it was too big. Guess it needs a fairly specific size.
Perhaps a replacement shock from a Busa or GSXR will be the way to go if with the standard shock I am still going to get a lot of sag and bounce even with preload and rebound set up more appropriately.
Will keep an eye out for a cheap busa or GSXR1100 shock, couple on trademe at the moment but they're up around $200.

Thanks for all the help guys. Still keen on a C spanner if anyone has one or knows where to get it though

I'm in the Tron and have a couple of C spanners of unknown origin in the bottom of the toolbox. I've owned lots of Suzuki's so there's a vague chance one might fit. You're welcome to come over and try them out.

Yeah that'd be awesome thanks! When are you free? Have PM'd with my details.

Did you order the wrong ones last time or have they simply fucked out already?

Probably milk and bread is cheaper as well. Perhaps you should move to North Mexico because everything is cheap???? If you lose your income and standard of living because everyone is buying overseas please make sure you are the first one on here complaining.
