Stuck mid Job- Help?
« on: April 27, 2025, 01:54:57 PM »


 In the middle of changing shock on my Norge.  I have a Penske shock to install but cannot figure out how to get to the TOP Shock Bolt of the Norge?

Suggestions if you have done this before Please.

I’ve done it a couple of times.
Remove the seat and right side cover and use a socket with extension.  I think it’s 17 mm but not sure on that. The nut is captive so it’s not too bad. You will think it’s not possible but it works.
