rear shocks

[grandpalucky]

what type and where is the adjustment for rear shocks on a 83 venture 1200:confused07:

Most all are air and damper adjustable for the standard Ventures (if you don't have the Royale), both are mounted on the left lower side of the bike just in front of the passenger foot peg. Damper runs 1-4, with 4 being heaviest and 1 being the lightest damping selection. Schrader valve is located on the same mount, 14-71 PSI is the rated range. Most of us run around 40-50 PSI on the rear shock. You Can upgrade to the MKII Progressive spring rear shock and really make it a smooth ride.
