Not sure to be honest I have had mine that long I don't know what I paid for it in fact I don't know if I did pay for it

Ha you sure your not from round my end lol.

[sliderglider]

usually one in the bikes tool kit if you have it

On my 16 year old bike lol they were probably made out of wood even if they were there ha

if you havent got a c spanner to adjust it you can se big pair pf pipe grips to do it but give ingah on here a pm he is the cb 500 life time sufferer of one

We do c-spanners for shocks but only one size at the moment, 58mm diameter. Worth measuring yours to see if they'll fit.

Ought to be one (or two depending on the shock) in the toolkit under the seat

If not we'd get a better idea from what shock it is rather than what bike I think.
