HOW-TO: Ohlins Rear Shock Installation on a Yamaha R3

#Ohlins #Yamaha #R3 In this video, I am installing the Ohlins Double Adjustable Rear Shock (YA967) – Norton Race Spec on my 2018 Yamaha R3. I'll show you how to remove the OEM shock, install the YA-967 unit and I'll talk about the overall geometry settings for the bike. This shock is also know as the Ohlins STX 46 Supersport Shock Absorber YA 967 and according to the Ohlins site, it will fit on the Yamaha MT-03 (2017-2020) and the on the 2015 to 2020 Yamaha R3. I am also replacing the lower bolt holding the shock in place with a Titanium bolt/nut. The overall process is fairly easy, I'd consider this to be a 2 on a scale of 1 to 5. You will need approximately 2-3 hours total to complete the work. I am using the Pit Bull jack stands to support the bike and to allow the swingarm to move freely, but you can use regular automotive jack stands if you don't own a set of Pit Bull stands.
