Shocks. Only one inverted?
What is the advantage of inverting only one rear shock. ? 2004 Stone Touring.
PO had the bags off.
:undecided:

Drunk when installed. Can’t wait to see what you find next.
-
if the shock is only adjustable on compression, flipping one over offers rebound adjustment.
as shock equipped with both are a bit pricey...

Never heard of this, seems like some sort of red-suspender old wives tale, how's that work with the stock EV shocks?

Apparently Works Performance shocks. I don't know which model.

ROFL! You should've saved this one for an April 1st joke.

.. there's a steel ball inside the damper rod, that blocks off the lower rebound section: flip it over and the compression section gets blocked. Possibly. Patent pending. :evil:

I’ve seen it on Earls front forks. 99 on EV ‘s have one front leg rebound and one leg compression damping. It’s used on off road buggies as well.

So do a lot of other bikes. Not the same as mounting upside down.

If the shock will work upside down I can see it. Clever idea - but looks wonky, I'm sure.
