Hi all
how do i remove the shock absorber nut to allow me to replace the front sprocket?
i have a sidecar fitted, and the sidecar frame restricts the amount of travel for the
socket t bar.Also is the nut R or LH thread.

Re: 18s engine shock absorber nut
Hi
Hard to advise with regard to the sidecar obstruction, but put the bike in fourth, get someone to apply the rear brake and undo the nut, which is a normal RH thread. You may find it easier to use a combination spanner which you can 'shock' with a hammer.
