How to Adjust Rear Motorcycle Suspension | Preload | Honda CB500F CB500X CBR

This video shows how to adjust the preload on your rear motorcycle shock which is helpful if the suspension is too hard or too soft, giving a harsh or wallowing feel. We specifically look at a 2016 Honda CB500F, but the techniques shown here are generally applicable to most bikes with a rear monoshock. Higher end shocks will also have adjustable dampening, which is not shown in this video.
